To My Beautiful Friend, An Inspiring Single Mother

Yeah, it is not quite what you have imagined. One moment you were totally in love and he promised you the world and the next moment the love-world just collapsed.

When you found out that you were going to be a mom, he was definitely not ready to be a dad. And while you fell in love with the idea of a baby every day a little bit more, he distanced himself from the idea…and you.

So just like that. He walked away from you and the baby.

It is hard to imagine, how devastating it must have felt and sometimes it is definitely still hard. But no matter what, you do not give up!

You always put the baby first – you are there for all the important moments and staying strong even if you are on the verge of a breakdown. You keep pushing forward and creating special memories with your baby.

Find time to be present and not to miss out on any moments takes sacrifice. As the baby learns something new every day, you make some sacrifices daily. Than means not enough sleep, not enough time and not enough social life. But this sacrifice has given you the strongest relationship in the world – the one that a child has with their mother.

You are a beautiful person, inside and out. You make an exceptional role model with the way you have dealt with this single mother situation.

It has been an honor and a pleasure to watch you to grow and teach each other something new every day. The baby is so very lucky to have you as their mother. I am so very lucky to have you as a friend.
