@@emmib1388He doesn’t need to commit to HER, he needs to commit to HIS SON. If men require a woman to be a good dad, then they just aren’t a good dad. Men need to be better than this.
@@unscmistressgaming1132 but it works best, if they commit to each other, before bringing a child into the world, and if the child comes into the world before they get a chance to commit to each other, they should do it as soon as possible and not live permanently engaged.
you ladies are soo pathetic . where are ur standards when choosing a man to procreate a child???? stop acting like you are the victim you brought this to yourself. BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR YOUR CHOICES.
Like I said join a mommy group in your area that involves you and your babes for playdates or mom night outs etc. I truly found this helped me at my lowest of depression and anxiety this is a must!
You're doing so good! ❤️ Your house is clean, your son is happy, your work hard and it's okay to have bad days! 1 month is not long and it's okay needing time to adjust to this BIG CHANGE! Your community is here to support you ❤️ Keep your heads up, better days are coming soon.
Sharing parts of your life allows us to relate to you. Your struggles are real......your life is even more real. Deacon is an incredible little human. He looks at you with such love and awe!! You are managing this life amazingly!!
You are doing such an amazing job! I’m so proud of you. Please know it’s okay to have days where you are exhausted - just remember that nothing can keep you down. You’re a Mother, and that means you’re one of the strongest people in the world! ❤
I have been a single mumma since my daughter was born 14 years ago, I am still learning as each stage goes by. I wouldn't change it because we have a close bond and she has grown into a lovely young lady. Just know that you're doing amazing and your boy will always be by your side, your house is spotless and you both always look lovely. You really have got this 🙏 when you feel sad or frustrated, fresh air is the best endorphin which you already know ❤
Hey mama I want you to know that the man that did that was not meant for you there is someone out there who is going to treat you like a princess and treat deacon as his own son and love him and you more then you will ever know he was not meant for you you are beautiful and deserve someone ten times better then him love yourself and your son enjoy every moment with deacon no matter what’s going on keep on going you doing great sending love your way🫶🏻❤️🫶🏻
Amen! I can attest to this; my son’s donor left me when I was pregnant because he wasn’t ready to be a dad. My son is almost 3 and I have since married; my husband loves our little one as his own. Goodness will come your way. It is the hardest thing being a single mom, but keep doing what you’re doing. You’re a good mom and person and things will get better. When it gets too tough, pause and sip on a cup of tea. You are loved Lillian. And everything you’re feeling is totally normal. Praying for you.
I had the same situation. I'm not going to lie, there were times I wanted to quit but I didn't. It's really hard to do. Try and find moms your age and live nearby. It always helps to have good neighbors 😊
Oh wait. You’re a single mom now??? I recently became a single mom also. I have. 17 month old and 5 year old. It’s very hard to keep going sometimes. Sending love ❤
@emmib1388 it’s crazy that people still put so much power into a piece of paper. They were in a relationship, lived together shared all the responsibilities and bills had a child together, that’s not being a single mom. Being a single mom means the father is not coming home every day, not paying any bills, not helping you out. Big difference.
@@chandlerbing9333 I agree. Unmarried doesn’t mean single mom. Taking care of your child solely by yourself. With little to no help from the other parent is being a single mom
I was just about in a similar situation myself raising my son, and I officially would have been had WFH been a thing back then. I have at least emotionally been a single mom most of my son's life, and his dad and I have just now finally split up officially. Even if you make it to the altar before pregnancy is even a factor, I have seen living proof that sometimes even a married man is not up to the challenge. I'll be thinking of you and your son as I am figuring out my own next steps. I know from experience, though, that exhausting as it is every day, the years will suddenly seem to have gone by fast and the very best thing for your son is giving him a reliable mom. Meanwhile, try to always remember to take care of yourself too while you take care of your little one! ❤❤❤
I just found your page and want to say thank you for sharing your journey it helps as I’m in the same space,, you are beautiful and amazing and your son is blessed to have you ❤😊
Lilly I don't have babies but I have fur babies, and my boyfriend works 19 hours away from me and is gone 2 weeks at a time. But I know how you feel sorta. But I love watching your videos! And I hope you find peace, and i hope you find someone who loves you unconditionally! Love you girlie!
You got this you deserve the world and you shouldn’t settle for less . It won’t be easy but with time and self care everything will end up the way it’s meant to be ❤
Deacon is so stinking cute ! My daughter did the foot thing earlier in the grocery cart at the store 😅 I thought that was so funny I just allowed her to. Sorry you’re going through a lot right now 🫶🏼
As a single mom of two under a year apart in age, you are slaying it! You're going to have good and not so good days. But I have to say that as long as you focus on yourself as well as your child, you'll be able to get through anything! My kids got me through a whole lot of mess. Just don't forget to take care of yourself as well! 💜💜💜
I noticed that you might feel a little guilty about going out, as whenever you do, you make a comment. Look, you are a great mom! You take such good care of Deacon, you work and keep your home clean and tidy. So if running out for a coffee or going to Target makes you feel good/distracted, then I say go for it girl you deserve it!! You have a lot of support out here and we are rooting for you!! 💜🦋💜
Are you no longer with Deacon’s dad? 🥺 sending you all the strength in the world. You are no alone. You got this, let yourself to feel. Te abrazo mucho 🫂
The fact that you are a single mother when they're was clearly a father, is sick. He should be so ashamed of himself. You are so strong, Deacon is lucky to have you as a mother.
I’m preg with about a month left and I have a two year old son. Baby daddy is being really sketchy and I’m so scared. I don’t know how I will balance work, postpartum, newborn, and my toddler. I believe in myself but it hurts so much so I feel you girl.
Being a mom can be lonely. Especially with the changes you’re going through. It is brave of you to share. Lots of research supports the benefits of moms having good social and community support. Maybe connecting to a group or something fun would help if you’re not already doing so? Also … girl the way you put your toaster away! And your counters?! I’m so inspired by that as well 😅
You are so much stronger than you think! Sometimes it takes you having to go through really hard things to realize how strong you are. You will see yourself and where you are in a couple months and you’ll be proud of yourself, never give up! ❤
I just have to say I’m kind of shocked about the news. I thought I saw Deacon’s dad in a video a bit ago and noticed your engagement ring on your finger. I’m sorry you’re going through all this
This videos are very inspirational. I am a single mom of a choice and it isn’t always easy but you learn how to make it through. My son also likes to put his foot on top of his tray in his highchair. Don’t understand why. Love that car seat can you give a name brand and model?
You got this and I couldn't help but go back to your videos and you were talking about your fiancé, and now he's gone? I am so srry but just know we are all here for you. I hope it didn’t come off as rude.
I know the feeling too well, just a gentle reminder for those tough moments. To first be kind to yourself. Take a couple breathes if needed. Transitioning from a two parent household to a single parent household is hard but think about it? Is what you’re feeling right now worse than when you were with your spouse? Make the comparison then you may even retract feeling those negatives feelings
GOD BLESS YOU AND MAY OUR LORD CONTINUE TO GUIDE EACH STEP. YOU WILL HAVE SOME DIFFICULT MOMENTS BUT YOU HAVE YOUR PRECIOUS BABY THAT WILL HELP KEEP YOU A LITTLE SANE AND HE NEEDS YOU NOW MORE THAN EVER. FROM A SINGLE MOM OF 4 AND NEEDED TO WORK OUTSIDE THE HOME. YOUR STRONGER THAN YOU COULD POSSIBLY IMAGINE. BUT FOR NOW IF YOU NEED TO CRY DO SO, YOUR SPIRIT NEEDS TO RELEASE THE PRESSURE YOU WILL CONQUER. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR BABY.
You are going to be just fine ❤ Please 🙏 take good care of yourself. I know that you did not ask my advice, but, if you did, just know that your little guy will be grown before you know it. So, just put your strength and time into y'alls little family. And most importantly, you will still be YOUNG when your little boy graduates from high-school ❤❤ I will keep you both in my prayers 🙏 💙 ❤️ Godspeed ❤
Yours is a very real thus great testimony. I have female friends that are going to be single moms and I think this reality will actually help them. Just a little suggestion: try to get out of the house every day, that helps me a lot. Thanks a lot for your videos
I didn't want to say anything but whenever your husband was in the videos he seemed distant from you and your son, I know it is gonna be hard but you can do this my parents got divorced when I was around deacons age and just remember being with my mom and I loved it we became so close
Do you have any tips? I really feel like i need to be alone from my baby’s father but I second guess my decision and something always ends up happening.
Hey Girl I Hope You Receive This Message Because I Understand What You're Going Through My Daughter Bio Dad Left Us When She was 1 & 1/2 yrs old! HE DIDN'T EVEN CALL OR GET HER ANYTHING FOR HER BDAY and Sometimes I Still Resent Him and I Struggle With My Feeling What I Found Helpful Was Joining 1 or more Mommy Groups In Your Area! I Live In Tampa,FL closer to Wesley Chapel,FL and There's always some type of play dates
You are doing a great job make sure you get me time rather you take a bath and relax or go out once a month if you can . Find you a church to meet friends and go to bible studies they have daycare that high school youth can watch your little one just an idea . hugs to you praying for you and your son . 🙏🏻💕
Suggestion: instead of plopping your child in front of the TV while he eats breakfast alone, keep him with you, eat breakfast with him, converse with him, have him interact with you while you unload the dishwasher
