A single mom's promise

This is the look of love, of determination, of the fierce fight for you because, little one, even though mama is doing this alone I will never let you struggle. You will never know the hardships I endured to bring you into this world alone. May you always feel secure and comforted by my love. May you always know momma will give her life protecting you. May you always find comfort in my arms. I pray that you and your brother have an unbreakable bond. I pray that you always feel comfortable talking to me about your struggles and know that we will solve them together. I pray that you follow your dreams and never stop learning new things. May you find peace and happiness in a world filled with hate and intolerance. I pray that you embrace both sides of your culture and learn all you can about your roots. Above all, grow little one, and never let anyone stand in the way of being the person you want to be.

I love you to Pluto and beyond,

Mommy
