Wow - what a story and an accomplishment that you finished school so young with such a great GPA and you were a single mom. Thank goodness you have such a wonderful family. I am so glad you shared. You are a shining example of how you can take a challenge from life and turn it into something so positive for everyone.

I think it is a big sacrifice to be a mom - but that sacrifice is such a small price to pay for the joy and the growth you have as a person in return. I would do it again any day.

I think a lot of people have the misconception that you have to be happily married and have enough money right off the bat.

When I had my son I was married but I chose to give up a good paying job (over half our income at the time) to stay home with DS. It was a big struggle - we had to live on $100 per week (food, diapers, haircuts, gas, entertainment) plus I was launching my business. DS was colicky and DH never home.

But I did it. And the funny thing now is that I am divorced I realize that I am so blessed to have DS - would take a child versus any husband any day!!

I grew in ways I never knew imagineable. If I can do it, anyone can do it.
