DEPRESSED
I swear I love my son with every piece of my heart. ❤️ But being a single Black mother is HARD. I’m tired, frustrated, overwhelmed, and honestly at the point where I just want to cry. 😭 Having an inconsistent, absent father who provides nothing makes it even harder. I chose my son, and I don’t regret him for a second. I just never imagined motherhood would feel this lonely and exhausting. 💔

I’m praying for you mama 💕
When u accept the fact that it’s in fact hard n I are the only one you got things will get easier
what do you feel would help you feel less lonely excluding a man do you miss having a social life? do you want/ have friends with kids? do you have someone you trust to watch your son while you go get your nails done.
Sounds like you need a very much needed break momma.. is the dad involved at all, do you have trusted family members or friends? Can you use this app to find a trusted friend nearby to have a play date with while you just sit and relax? If you’re close to me, you can text me and we can make plans! If I’m not then I’m sure these other mommas commenting would be happy to help if they’re close to you too🙂 we’re all here to help!

Quitting my job
So I’ve come to the decision to quit my job mainly because they keep putting my safety at risk with heavy loads and stuff and I’m over worrying what they’re going to make me do, so I’m going to quit with immediate effect because I literally end up having panic attacks before I leave my house to go to work. Just want to know if people think what I’m doing is right or if I’m jumping the gun

Christmas toys
Sorry I know it’s too early for the ‘c’ word😂 but I’m wondering if you build the toys before wrapping them for your toddlers?
Last year he was only nearly 1 obviously when things were unwrapped In a box he wasn’t really interested nor did he know what it was. Even when things were built he’d still rather play with the boxes and to some extent I’m expecting the same this year but I thought maybe if I pre build the toys and wrap them so they’re ready to play with straight away he’d be more engaged and excited. Is this something anyone else does? He’ll be coming up to 2 this Christmas and I’ve got him a few things I just know he’s going to love!
