Getting started…
May 1, 2008
….. one of the hardest things to do. It doesn’t matter what the task, taking the first step seems to always be the most difficult. With that being said, I’ll start by introducing myself.
I am a single mother of one handsome little seven-year old boy, and I like to think that I encompass all the traits and characteristics of a truly happy and joyful single mamma. I try to take care in delivering the right message as it relates to my acceptance and willingness to embrace my single motherhood. As I’m sure other joyful single mammas will agree – it doesn’t matter if you are a single mother by chance or choice, you are a single mom and should learn to make the best of it.
In my journey of being a single mom, I have had the opportunity of going from being dependent to independent, from worried to optimistic, from weak to strong, and finally from comfortable to eager. It’s this eagerness and strong desire to want and expect more that has set the stage and motivation for this new SingleMotherJoy Weblog!

Good idea for a blog. I was a single mom for many, many years. I remember talking to a counselor just after being a single mom. I asked, “How will I do it? Will I have to give up my art and my dreams?” Her reply, “you just will.” I remember her words often. You just will. Not to say that it was not difficult at times. But I developed a support group of wonderful people we called family and they helped. Keep up the blog. I’ll be checking back. By the way, Chris turned out fine. She is 24 and getting married in April. Go single moms!
