Millennial Caribbean Mom

  Some people will never understand your story. However, that's okay. Our validation doesn't come from man but God. He is the author and finisher of our faith.  I know that I have not been on here for quite awhile for I am back to share with you. I was living in another city for almost 2 years raising my daughter who will be 7 years old.  That's right, I now have a 7 year old child.  It has not been an easy journey. Motherhood is not as simple as it looks. It is a sacrifice. God has been good and he never fails. I have been amazed at the wonderful things that my daughter has been doing and her  passion for life.  There are days when I felt like giving up doing it by myself but I always remember that  God didn't bring me this far to leave me.  For all single mothers, continue to trust God and know that He will never leave you or forsake you.

  My birthday came and went. I was working on that day since it was a work day. I didn't have anything planned out but I felt bittersweet. I was at a milestone age and felt like I didn't achieve all my goals. I had to reassure myself that all things are working for my good and everything works on God's timing and not man's.  My daughter made me a handmade birthday card which was very cute and she wished me happy birthday.  I was thankful for another year and I didn't want to over do it by spending unnecessarily. However on the weekend on International Women's Day March 8,I felt like a child again by visiting the circus [The Suarez Brothers Circus] with my daughter. It was actually by first time going to the circus here in Jamaica as I missed it when I was a child. This reminds me that as a parent I get to re-live my childhood days with my daughter.  The activities were very fun and entertaining and we enjoyed ourselves.
