My thoughts on being a mommy

No one aspires to be a single mom but that’s how it’s worked out for me, I struggled through my pregnancy because I never thought I’d be in this position but... I L-O-V-E being Akyah’s mom. Today I finished my first term at Western as a mom and it feels good. I’m more in-love with Akyah every day. At the same time, I miss my dad desperately and without Akyah I have no idea how I would deal with losing him. Words cannot express how much I love her, how beautiful she is, and how much she means to me. So much that I cannot hold the tears back at this moment as I try to find the words to describe how I feel. My wish for Akyah is that she never doubts how much she is loved and knows without a doubt she is by far the BEST thing that’s ever happened to me. God Bless the broken road that brought her to me. I've already learned so much from her, she's changed me for the better. Losing my dad and having Akyah has given me the gift of appreciation, I will never take her or any of my family for granted. I'm the luckiest mama on earth! I want to thank all of you for being apart of this incredible journey God has blessed and trusted me with. I'm excited to see what the future holds for our family of two.

Every day with my beautiful baby girl is a good day. She is the center of my world, my everything. Here's a shot from right after she was born:
