Because I’m a Single Mother


Being a single parent is twice the work, twice the stress and twice the tears but also twice the hugs, twice the love and twice the pride. – Unknown

A single mother has to fulfill the jobs of two people. She has to do twice more work, having no one with whom she could share the burden of the stressful moments. The bright side is that she gets all the love and attention of her child, and that she is always there for all the significant and heart-warming moments of her child’s life.
