After my kids father passed away a few yrs ago, my life has been turned upside down. I lost the home he worked so hard to give us, had to go live with mom in her tiny place. That's when she got a stroke & couldn't go back to work. I am now in a 2 bedroom with her & my 5 kids. I've had a few emotional break downs but I'm still here. Hope that things get better for us both & every other single mom working hard to get by ❤
So sorry to hear that and for your lost 😢 I pray that God bless you and do miraculous things in you ,your children, and your mother life. ❤️❤️ I know it’s hard but we have to keep hope that things will get better
I have two kids. They are grown men now but when they were little I split from my ex and we moved into a one bedroom apartment in a not so nice area of town. We lived there for several years. Things got better and better. I finally purchased my own home and things got better again. My advice is to save as much money as you can, live on the cheap, start asking God to help you realize your goals but you must also do your part. It will happen for you, you will be successful. Your children with your help will be successful. I will be praying for you. Keep your head up. God bless.
I’m doing the same thing I had a 2 bedroom but they tried to raise my rent by $300 so it forced me in a one bedroom apartment with my 4 year old son I understand how hard times can be, but mothers always make things work for their children. Salute to all the single parents out there.
That's okay. When I started highschool my mom and I had to move into a one bedroom where we shared a room. As long as she was good, I was good. She made it a home and filled it with love and memories. My friends thought that it was cool because I kind of made my room part of the living room (not totally) but it wasn't bad.
YES! I was going to suggest the same! That’s actually A LARGE one bedroom. She is really doing a good job. I love when people think smart! I definitely created a bedroom for her in the dinning room area in my mind😊.
The comments here is exactly what I'm expecting from humanity. Yes this was a double watch and double comment. Just feel so good to see us cheering each other on.
Don’t ever feel shame for doing everything you can do for you and those babies. You are working hard to keep a roof over their heads, put good food in their mouths, clothe them properly, and you are showing them lots of love! There is no shame in that Mama! Give yourself a big pat on the back once in awhile. We forget, as single parents, that we deserve the accolades when we are kicking butt in the parental department! Especially when life is so difficult and stressful these days. You’re moving up- you said earlier in the vid that you moved to a better side of town but it’s still a one bedroom. Next step will be a bigger place. It just takes the time and patience that you clearly have. You are clearly a good mommy that puts her babies and their needs first. Don’t ever worry about what others may think or how they may judge you about how little you have or why you live a certain way. Your home is neat and tidy and that’s all that matters! We all get to choose how we want to live and if we don’t like how others live, then that’s when we just scroll past the channel, right! Keep up the great work! 🙏❤️ First time watching your channel. I’m a subscriber now!❤
I love this. It’s clean and minimalist. If you decide to, you could put yourself a sleeper futon where that pink toy is in the living room. Also, don’t feel like you need to apologize for not having “stuff”. This space is actually perfect. Good job, mama!
My sentiments exactly. You’re working with what you got. You got a roof over you and your daughter’s heads. It’s nice, clean and spacious. Take your time, I won’t rush it until the girls are older, continue to stack your money. Everything worked out on your favor. God, did before He will do it again! Also, you can get a double air mattress, or get you the couch that lets out into a sofa bed. God bless you Queen. Shalom
I think your tidy and minimal lifestyle is great. It helps kids feel calmer because your home isn’t chaotic. I admire your organization and cleanliness. Also, you’re a fantastic mom!
You are a great mommy! Baby I did the same thing you are doing now. When i had all 3 kids living with me 2 years ago, I slept on my couch. But eventually my middle son got his own apartment and then I moved into Anthonys old room. So, I understand how you feel, I had 3 bedrooms and I wanted each of my kids to have their own rooms. I didn't care where I slept as long as my kids were happy. I never wanted my kids to go without anything. Or look back at their childhood and feel I did them bad. They only reason I have a 3 bedroom cause my older kids have jobs and help pay rent. Love- Jessica
Aww thank you 💕 and yes that’s exactly how I feel!! And I think that’s so great of you to give your kids the bedrooms 🙌🏾 you’re a great mommy as well 🥰
I’m downsizing as well and will be getting a nice 1 bedroom apartment soon. My son will have the bedroom and I’ll get me a sofa bed. Not worried about the opinions of others because I’m the only one paying my bills. I’m working on credit and my debt and I’m not spending a fortune on rent when i have other bills and a life to live. Nobody should have to work pay check to pay check just for bills
So true! Don’t care what people say because they don’t pay bills or nothing so do what works for you and your son. As long as y’all happy that’s all that matters ❤️. I agree! No one should have to work so hard and still live paycheck to paycheck.
@@Talkwithtina808 through the grace of God, I just moved about 2 weeks ago and was fortunate enough to get a 2bedroom. I recently found out I’m expecting. I threw all my son and I old furniture away and have to buy all new things. I’m taking it one day at a time although I’m currently sleeping on the floor as I still have all my bed linen and big blankets I’m just so grateful that we have our own place and space. I pray everything works out for the best for you and your kid and that we continue to move forward on our journey no matter what things may currently look like. Stay blessed!!!
Gurl im from NYC....a one bedroom with three is a mansion....you do the best you can as long as you do what you need❤...no explanation needed....good job
Girl, preach. Last year I was listening to “Latino USA” on NPR and there was a woman who was renting CLOSETS for she and her kids to sleep in. She and her 6 year old son slept in one and she gave her teen daughter the other. I think of them often. We are so blessed!
Your home is beautiful and neat. I was where you are when my babies were young and I was just so happy to have a roof over my head and a safe place for us. You are doing great!
Great job mom! My baby and i lived in a studio apartment for 3.5 years. He slept in the "big bed" with me. He had his own little dining and tv area. I had my little sitting area. We had our plants and he had tons of books and toys. I actually miss that space. But we definitely out grew it.
I’m a single mom of one. I made a studio apartment work for me and my kiddo for a time. You’re killing it! You’re out here taking care of your business and making sure your kids are provided for. Great job mama ❤
Thank you for sharing. To these people who are judging, they obviously have never had to do what they must to take care of themselves. As long as you and yours are happy and well taken care of. Who cares. You are amazing and you keep doing your thing. A friend had to live in a tent with her kids for months. And she tri to give her kids to social services and they said no because they got a roof over her head and were well taken care of. You do you all day every day. Also, you have a one-bedroom with your kids and it has a full-size washer and dryer. You are living large. Great size bathroom and everything. people need to keep their comments to themselves. You know they would not say anything if they talked to you in person. Also, that closet is HUMONGOUS. You are slaying.
Thank you so much I really appreciate that! They will always have something negative to say. They always but blame on women and not men. I’m just over it at this point. Like you said as long as my kids taken care of and have a roof over their head nothing else natters. They talk big and bad on the internet but sure won’t say it in person ☺️ but i appreciate your comment thank you 💕🫶🏽
I have OCD and am a minimalist, and I LOVE how clean and crisp everything is! It looks very peaceful and your little ones must feel so wealthy and abundant! Times are hard, but I am sure your girls have no idea! Beautiful!
I admire you so much! As a single mother it is HARD. I’ve been living with family for the last year and FINALLY found an apartment that I can afford for myself and my two daughters. It’s surprisingly a two bedroom but there’s been many times that I considered just doing a one bedroom. All 3 of us have already been living out of one bedroom at my family’s house so I knew it was possible but you’re doing so good by your girls. Keep it up mama!
I really appreciate you putting your story out for others / me to have to watch for reassurance that I’m doing the best I can for me and my boys. Thank you so much ❤
as someone who’s mother gave everything for me to be comfortable, i respect you so much, you make sure your kids straight before yourself !! and as we all can tell ur kids are HAPPY just to be with you. that’s amazing mama keep up ur good work.
I love this. Trust me, as long as you are good, your kids will be good. My mom and I went from a two bedroom apartment to a 1br apartment when I stared highschool. We shared a bed. As long as she was good, I was good. She filled it with lots of love and amazing memories.
Amen! God out here taking care of the single mama’s. Amen!!! He did the same for me! Got me approved in less than 24 hours and they never ran my credit! Nobody but God! 💖🙏🏽 Great job mommy! I didn’t have my own room for a while when my daughter was smaller. I always gave her the bedroom. I will go without, as long as she is good. May God continue to bless you and your family dear.
Its lovely the kids have their own space. Thanks for the inspiration - im about to move out of a house into an apartment with a toddler. As a single mum it was really hard to find a safe place to rent.
I can tell that you are a good mother , I can tell you put them first the kids look happy and healthy . The apt is very clean and specious , times are hard and you did what is best for you and your kids .
Your place is cute, I like it. I don’t like clutter either. And it’s so neat with all those babies, you did a good job. Your babies are blessed to have a mother like you. Good job! 👍🏽
Your place is nice and your children are adorable. I grew up in another time (60's & 70"s) but it was very normal for families, because most had big families, where several of the kids shared one bedroom. It's ridiculous with what is being required of people for rent. Very nice and thank you for sharing! I also, didn't have much like nice vases and stuff displayed, because I also didn't want to worry or get upset about my kids breaking things it's just stuff. I am close to retirement, and I still do not want a bunch of "stuff". Very happy for you. God Bless!
Blessing towards you and your girlzzz your doing GREAT!!! IM with my mom cause a 1 bedroom here is 2000 craziness Keep going don't give up from 1 single mom to another. When it gets tough pray n don't give up
Keep up the great work mom being a single parent is one of the hardest job to have 😢 I’m one of 2 girls . God has us surviving and living and I’m grateful for what I have and I don’t compare my life with others everyone have a different journey in this life 😅
Hello Alexis! I just found your channel and subscribed! I am 51 with 2 grown daughters and my youngest lives with me. Things are sooo expensive, it gets hard sometimes. You have a very nice apartment and you did what you had to do and I don’t blame you! Great video! Definitely hold your head up! And absolutely, we go thru different seasons for different reasons. I admire you! Keep going girl! 🙌🏾🤗🤍
I live in a one bedroom apartment with my two kids. The bedroom is very spacious enough to fit my bed queen and my kids twin beds. You are blessed and I enjoyed watching the tour! Happy apartment searching this year. 🎉❤️
I thought about keeping my queen bed in the room as well with the kids bed but I need my space 😂 even if its in the living room. But thank you so much hun ❤️❤️🫶🏽
Hello, it's good to see you are a loving mom. Your children do come first. You have a nice layout to your unit. Washer & dryer that's a bonus! You are right you don't need a lot of furniture. I would get a accent chair and floor lamp. I don't like end tables take up too much space. Keep it clean and cozy. For your sleeping arrangment they have ottomans that letout to bed. How nice is that. A seat in the day. A bed at night. Much love to you and your beautiful family. Keep doing you. 🙏❤️
This is sooo cozy warm and homely, love the apartment and how you have made it work. most important thing is they have a loving caring mum and thats worth more than a mansion! hugs from Australia
Girl, I applaud you and what you’re doing! Including giving your girls their own room!👍🏼💖 I’m a 77yo grandma and when I was young, was a single mom of a son and daughter. One time I couldn’t even turn the electric on in our apartment! 🙁! But I always figured it out. I had an ice chest that I would buy ice for, so we could have milk for cereal and balogna for sandwiches. At night, I would light a candle so we could take baths and I could take my contacts out. The things we do to survive. Anyway, I appreciate what you’re doing and have just subscribed to your channel. Will be keeping you and your babies in my prayers!!! ♥️🙏🏼♥️
Good job mama, you made it work for you and your babies. What sucks is more than likely the people working at those apartment complexes probably don't even make 3-4x the rent. And the excuse that they want you making 3-4x the rent for security is BS because you can have more than enough income and still decide not to pay your rent, while the person who barely makes 2x the rent may pay their rent on time faithfully.
Very nice apartment. I like the black doors, and black and stainless steel appliances. Great job!!! Keep doing your best and stay positive and keep up your great personality. You have a great sense of humor!!! Keep praying over yourself and your babies and everything in your life. Amen.🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🤗🤗🤗🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I can tell you are a fantastic mama, I had to do this when I left my abusive husband I was only 17 when we got married (Dumb) lol but I left him after I had my 3 child. I was 21 and had three children ages 3 and under. And he did not help at all, I had to move into a one bedroom duplex for a while. It literally had a kitchen, bathroom bedroom and den. I had a triple bunk bed in the bed room so they had all their toys and clothes and I slept on a fold out Sofa in the den. lol it was an old one too. I did not have washer or dryer so I had to take three kids to the laundry mat or wash our clothes in the tub and ring them out by hand and hang them to dry all over the house mostly the bathroom and the kitchen. My kids ALWAYS had what they needed and I am like you I will go without for my kiddo's. BRAVO for you mama, and things DO get better! Trust God he will carry you through and you should be PROUD of yourself and you are blessed I see so many ppl living in motels now with children. I ended up getting re married later to one of my best guy friends from high school. He was God sent, I don't trust men around my kids but I knew him as in best guy friend. He stepped up and the kids started calling him Dad they knew them since they were born. I had my tubes reversed to have a baby with him because he had no bio kids and he deserved that experience and GOD BLESS it worked and so our fourth child actually graduated a year early and she got scholarships to the first choice University she picked and she also made the cheer team so she will be leaving us in August for school. I don't know what to do with myself I do have grandchildren now but its just not the same. My children range in age from 35 down to she just turned 18 she graduated last year but went to a local collage for some of her pre courses and we lost our youngest son last year and she had a tough time with that so we all decided she would stay home one last year but now time is up! So you be so proud of yourself and that is a NICE apartment I would have loved my 1 bedroom to look like that! Real woman and moms always do what we got to do for our kids. God bless you and I enjoyed your video thanks for sharing you are doing great!
Aww thank you so much ❤️and I’m so sorry for your lost as well 😢 I’m so glad that you were able to get out that situation and was able to find love again and have a healthy family dynamic! God is so good!!! This literally gave me so much hope for the future and knowing that things won’t always be the same and that it will get better. Thank you so much once again 💕 I wish you and your family all the best !!!
@@DailyDoseOfAlexis Absolutely and I subbed up also and hit the like.... God is going to look out for you and no ear has heard no eyes have see the things the Lord has stored up for his children. Wait and see, he is going to provide for you in ways you can not imagine. I can tell you love and trust God and I think you have many blessed years full of favor for you and your kids. God bless you.
Your children are blessed to have such a wonderful lady as you for a mum, the home and you have made lovely for you and them .I wish you good luck and health .
Mom absolutely too cute. I raised 3 dtrs alone and we made do with what we had. Me too made sure they had their own rm and I could get the couch. They're grown now but you made me reminisce and you reminded me of me. You're apartment it too cute.
Absolutely love your apartment, you have it lovely. I live in a one bed too with my two daughters. I got rid of the king size bed in it and made it the kids room, I agree once the kids have their own space, their own beds and their own room to bring a friend to play in that's all that matters 🙂
I love your apartment. I lived in a 1 bedroom apartment growing up. My mom made it work and I have no regrets. Also, your places is huge. You can get a day bed and put it in the living room. Mom you need to sleep comfortable as well. You have a new subscriber.
I love your space and the way you have it set up … z you will be. Available to live peacefully and abundantly for a long time please stay in your 1 bedroom until you save and became a home owner your kids will understand completely when their older while yall sitting in your 4 bedroom house with a back yard🎉
Your apartment looks very clean and in good condition-not cramped or crowded at all. I believe better things are in store for your but you've made the most of what you have now.
Hello Alexis. I just subscribed to your channel. I did the same thing you did, when my son was your daughter's age. ( He is now grown young man, with a beautiful family of his own, and doing so well) My. Husband, and I gave our son the bedroom, and we had the living-room. Night time, our couch turned into a bed. You are absolutely right.. Children need their own space. They did not ask to be here. Your home is beautiful. Very nice,and clean, and not clutter. Even though you have children, everything is still in place. Your girl's are adorable. God bless. Looking forward to seeing more video's from you. Thank's for sharing ❤

Awww thank you hun 💕 I appreciate it !!
I have two boys and I have been thinking about getting a one bedroom, and letting them share it. Thank you for sharing ♥️
You’re welcome ❤️❤️ and thank you for watching 💕
I love this. Trust me, as long as you are good, your kids will be good. My mom and I went from a two bedroom apartment to a 1br apartment when I stared highschool. We shared a bed. As long as she was good, I was good. She filled it with lots of love and amazing memories.
I’m in a similar situation mama, this is so unbelievably relatable. We’re all just doing our best ❤
Yes doing the best we can! ❤️❤️
The apartment is wonderful and they take pride in their home. God bless you and your children. ❤❤
Thank you ❤️
Glad I found your channel I just went apartment hunting and wanted to see someone living in a small space with kids to see if I could manage. Thanks
You’re welcome 💕 it can definitely be done just can’t have a lot of stuff because then things will start to feel crowded and overwhelming.
@@DailyDoseOfAlexis I’m purging my things now started today
@@southerngal901 that’s great! Let me know how it goes and how you feel after 💕
You are a loving mother who makes sacrifices for her children. May God continue to bless you and your babies in abundance . 🙏❤
Thank you so much 💕
You are a wonderful momma. God bless your beautiful family.
Thank you 💕💕
Amen! God out here taking care of the single mama’s. Amen!!! He did the same for me! Got me approved in less than 24 hours and they never ran my credit! Nobody but God! 💖🙏🏽 Great job mommy! I didn’t have my own room for a while when my daughter was smaller. I always gave her the bedroom. I will go without, as long as she is good. May God continue to bless you and your family dear.
God is good!🙌🏾!!! And thank you so much 💕❤️
Your are a great mom this is what mom's do they make it happen you made it work and that's it just know God is working and making a way Gods Got Yall
Thank you so much ! I appreciate that and yesss God is working 🙌🏾❤️💕
Its lovely the kids have their own space. Thanks for the inspiration - im about to move out of a house into an apartment with a toddler. As a single mum it was really hard to find a safe place to rent.
Thank you and you’re welcome! And yes it cost to live in a decent area but for my babies safety I’ll pay whatever
I can tell that you are a good mother , I can tell you put them first the kids look happy and healthy . The apt is very clean and specious , times are hard and you did what is best for you and your kids .
Thank you so much 💕
Your place is cute, I like it. I don’t like clutter either. And it’s so neat with all those babies, you did a good job. Your babies are blessed to have a mother like you. Good job! 👍🏽
Thank you so much ❤️❤️
Your place is nice and your children are adorable. I grew up in another time (60's & 70"s) but it was very normal for families, because most had big families, where several of the kids shared one bedroom. It's ridiculous with what is being required of people for rent. Very nice and thank you for sharing! I also, didn't have much like nice vases and stuff displayed, because I also didn't want to worry or get upset about my kids breaking things it's just stuff. I am close to retirement, and I still do not want a bunch of "stuff". Very happy for you. God Bless!
Thank you so much !!! And yes it is very ridiculous and hurt families in the end. You’re welcome and thank you for watching 💕❤️
I love your attitude. Your kids are lucky to have such a good mama.
Thank you ❤️
Blessing towards you and your girlzzz your doing GREAT!!! IM with my mom cause a 1 bedroom here is 2000 craziness
Keep going don't give up from 1 single mom to another. When it gets tough pray n don't give up
Thank you so much, I appreciate it and you are doing great as well! $2,000 dollars is crazy! literally robbery.
And a patio area? Yes!!! This is better than a lot of multple bedroom aparetments. looks awesome.
Yes and thank you again ❤️❤️
you have everything you need. It is perfect
I think your place is perfect the way you have it..your a great mom...be proud of your place because its everything you need..and quite Beautiful!!
Thank you so much 💕
Keep up the great work mom being a single parent is one of the hardest job to have 😢 I’m one of 2 girls . God has us surviving and living and I’m grateful for what I have and I don’t compare my life with others everyone have a different journey in this life 😅
Thank you Hun 💕🫶🏽
Wow! Your apartment is beautiful! You do what you have to do! It’s only temporary! God is good all the time! Good luck in your new apartment!
Thank you so much 💕
I haven't even watched the full video, I want to encourage you to always do what is best for you first and foremost! Make it work for you!
Thank you I appreciate that, I agree with you 💯
Sis you can turn the dining room into your room! 🙌🏼
That’s a great idea ! Thank you 💕
It looks great! I hate clutter so I love minimally furnished spaces. You’re doing great, Mom!
Thank you 🫶🏽💕
This is a beautiful apartment!
Hello Alexis! I just found your channel and subscribed! I am 51 with 2 grown daughters and my youngest lives with me. Things are sooo expensive, it gets hard sometimes. You have a very nice apartment and you did what you had to do and I don’t blame you! Great video! Definitely hold your head up! And absolutely, we go thru different seasons for different reasons. I admire you! Keep going girl! 🙌🏾🤗🤍
Hi Nicole, yes it is very expensive and thank you so much I really appreciate that ❤️
@@DailyDoseOfAlexis You’re welcome.
I am happy for you all and proud of you. You chose your family over everything!
Thank you so much 💕💕
Finally a video I can relate to. Love seeing real people on here. You did a great job with your home, it looks great ❤ subscribing now
Awww thank you I appreciate it ❤️💕🫶🏽
I live in a one bedroom apartment with my two kids. The bedroom is very spacious enough to fit my bed queen and my kids twin beds. You are blessed and I enjoyed watching the tour! Happy apartment searching this year. 🎉❤️
I thought about keeping my queen bed in the room as well with the kids bed but I need my space 😂 even if its in the living room. But thank you so much hun ❤️❤️🫶🏽
Very neat! Your little girl with the yellow shirt on is adorable , she’s like a little sponge soaking it all in. Attentive and so helpful 👏🏽
Thank you 💕 and yes very helpful
Way to go mama!! You’ve got this! May God continue to bless you and your children ♥️
Thank you ❤️
@@DailyDoseOfAlexis your welcome!
You’re killin it momma! ❤
Thank you hun 💕
What an amazing mom you are and inspiring! ❤
Thank you ❤️❤️
I love these videos . One thing a mom will do is make it work
Always!!! Thank you 💕
Yessss and she is making it work
Hello, it's good to see you are a loving mom. Your children do come first. You have a nice layout to your unit. Washer & dryer that's a bonus! You are right you don't need a lot of furniture. I would get a accent chair and floor lamp. I don't like end tables take up too much space. Keep it clean and cozy. For your sleeping arrangment they have ottomans that letout to bed. How nice is that. A seat in the day. A bed at night. Much love to you and your beautiful family. Keep doing you. 🙏❤️
Thank you so much and I appreciate the ideas as well ❤️❤️❤️
I love the way you think. Your girls will do well with a mom like you
Thank you 🫶🏽💕💕 I appreciate it
Beautiful space, i love the fact that your place is not cluttered.
Thank you 💕💕
This is sooo cozy warm and homely, love the apartment and how you have made it work. most important thing is they have a loving caring mum and thats worth more than a mansion! hugs from Australia
Awww thank you so much 💕🫶🏽
Girl, I applaud you and what you’re doing! Including giving your girls their own room!👍🏼💖
I’m a 77yo grandma and when I was young, was a single mom of a son and daughter. One time I couldn’t even turn the electric on in our apartment! 🙁! But I always figured it out. I had an ice chest that I would buy ice for, so we could have milk for cereal and balogna for sandwiches. At night, I would light a candle so we could take baths and I could take my contacts out. The things we do to survive. Anyway, I appreciate what you’re doing and have just subscribed to your channel. Will be keeping you and your babies in my prayers!!! ♥️🙏🏼♥️
@@ritamullins1123 oh wow i applaud you as well! The sacrifices mothers make and still get the job done 💕🫶🏽 and thank you so much
So happy and proud for you! You are doing it, Momma, hugs!!
Thank you ❤️💕🫶🏽
That’s the thing with mamas, they gonna do whatever it takes, they gonna sacrifice whatever they have to…. Just to ensure the babies are GOOD ♥️
Yes! Just to make sure our babies are good!!
A big pink rug would look great in the girls room. Thanks for the video ❤
Yes it would ! I think it will add more fun vibes to the room and you’re welcome ☺️

Thank you so much ❤️
Your doing fine, you’re kids appreciate it 😊
@@rodgibelfond7463 thank you 💕
Bless your efforts to care for your family
I appreciate that
Good job mama, you made it work for you and your babies. What sucks is more than likely the people working at those apartment complexes probably don't even make 3-4x the rent. And the excuse that they want you making 3-4x the rent for security is BS because you can have more than enough income and still decide not to pay your rent, while the person who barely makes 2x the rent may pay their rent on time faithfully.
Exactly! You said it! These apartments really be tripping lol but thank you hun ❤️
You have done. Great job!! You don’t have to have a bunch of things for it to be a home. You have created a beautiful home you and those babies!!🥰
Thank you so much ❤️
What a beautiful home! You have everything for your family- most of all your love. God bless.
Thank you 💕💕
Very nice apartment. I like the black doors, and black and stainless steel appliances. Great job!!! Keep doing your best and stay positive and keep up your great personality. You have a great sense of humor!!! Keep praying over yourself and your babies and everything in your life. Amen.🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🤗🤗🤗🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thank you so much 🫶🏽❤️
You got this. You are a great mom they looked loved 🥰. They are in safe place. Things will get better stay strong your doing well
Thank you so much ❤️
At the end of the day you have a roof over you and your babies head 💖 🙏🙏
I can tell you are a fantastic mama, I had to do this when I left my abusive husband I was only 17 when we got married (Dumb) lol but I left him after I had my 3 child. I was 21 and had three children ages 3 and under. And he did not help at all, I had to move into a one bedroom duplex for a while. It literally had a kitchen, bathroom bedroom and den. I had a triple bunk bed in the bed room so they had all their toys and clothes and I slept on a fold out Sofa in the den. lol it was an old one too. I did not have washer or dryer so I had to take three kids to the laundry mat or wash our clothes in the tub and ring them out by hand and hang them to dry all over the house mostly the bathroom and the kitchen. My kids ALWAYS had what they needed and I am like you I will go without for my kiddo's. BRAVO for you mama, and things DO get better! Trust God he will carry you through and you should be PROUD of yourself and you are blessed I see so many ppl living in motels now with children. I ended up getting re married later to one of my best guy friends from high school. He was God sent, I don't trust men around my kids but I knew him as in best guy friend. He stepped up and the kids started calling him Dad they knew them since they were born. I had my tubes reversed to have a baby with him because he had no bio kids and he deserved that experience and GOD BLESS it worked and so our fourth child actually graduated a year early and she got scholarships to the first choice University she picked and she also made the cheer team so she will be leaving us in August for school. I don't know what to do with myself I do have grandchildren now but its just not the same. My children range in age from 35 down to she just turned 18 she graduated last year but went to a local collage for some of her pre courses and we lost our youngest son last year and she had a tough time with that so we all decided she would stay home one last year but now time is up! So you be so proud of yourself and that is a NICE apartment I would have loved my 1 bedroom to look like that! Real woman and moms always do what we got to do for our kids. God bless you and I enjoyed your video thanks for sharing you are doing great!
Aww thank you so much ❤️and I’m so sorry for your lost as well 😢 I’m so glad that you were able to get out that situation and was able to find love again and have a healthy family dynamic! God is so good!!! This literally gave me so much hope for the future and knowing that things won’t always be the same and that it will get better. Thank you so much once again 💕 I wish you and your family all the best !!!
@@DailyDoseOfAlexis Absolutely and I subbed up also and hit the like.... God is going to look out for you and no ear has heard no eyes have see the things the Lord has stored up for his children. Wait and see, he is going to provide for you in ways you can not imagine. I can tell you love and trust God and I think you have many blessed years full of favor for you and your kids. God bless you.
@@selahroseofsharon Amen!!! Thank you so much 💕

Thank you so much ❤️
Your little babies face when you panned in was too cute!
Thank you 💕💕
Absolutely love your apartment, you have it lovely. I live in a one bed too with my two daughters. I got rid of the king size bed in it and made it the kids room, I agree once the kids have their own space, their own beds and their own room to bring a friend to play in that's all that matters 🙂
Absolutely!!! Your doing great as well mama!!! 🫶🏽💕 and thank you ❤️
I love your apartment. I lived in a 1 bedroom apartment growing up. My mom made it work and I have no regrets. Also, your places is huge. You can get a day bed and put it in the living room. Mom you need to sleep comfortable as well. You have a new subscriber.
Thank you so much 💕 and yes I do lol 😂 thank you for subscribing as well 🫶🏽
Beautiful cozy apartment! I love it! Keep making you and your girls happy! ❤♥️♥️
Thank you ❤️
I love your space and the way you have it set up … z you will be. Available to live peacefully and abundantly for a long time please stay in your 1 bedroom until you save and became a home owner your kids will understand completely when their older while yall sitting in your 4 bedroom house with a back yard🎉
Thank you 😊 ❤️ I wish but this one bedroom is veryyy expensive so it’ll be smarter to leave and find something else
Your apartment looks very clean and in good condition-not cramped or crowded at all. I believe better things are in store for your but you've made the most of what you have now.
Thank you so much 💕
Hello Alexis. I just subscribed to your channel. I did the same thing you did, when my son was your daughter's age. ( He is now grown young man, with a beautiful family of his own, and doing so well) My. Husband, and I gave our son the bedroom, and we had the living-room. Night time, our couch turned into a bed. You are absolutely right.. Children need their own space. They did not ask to be here. Your home is beautiful. Very nice,and clean, and not clutter. Even though you have children, everything is still in place. Your girl's are adorable. God bless. Looking forward to seeing more video's from you. Thank's for sharing ❤
Thank you for subscribing ❤️and that’s awesome that you guys did that as well!!! Thank you do much for the compliments I appreciate it 💕💕
