It's hard becoming a young mother. I have been through so many things in my life some good mostly bad. Throughout everything I have been through my mom never failed me. I got pregnant at a young age, before getting pregnant I had run away from home at only 14 years old. I thought I had it all figured out and knew just exactly how the adult life worked. I went to school one day and never came home not thinking of all the people in my life I am hurting and disappointing. It was a rough year and a half on my own. I then became pregnant at 15 years old. In the moment things were great I was with my son's father at the time living with some family members. My mom and I were rebuilding our relationship in this time slowly but surely. I was pregnant but still hadn't told my mom about being pregnant or nothing at all. She just knew I had a serious boyfriend at the time. One day we went for a visit to my mom's with the intent to tell her I was expecting well we did just that. Little did I know she was receiving all of my mail from my doctor visits and ultrasounds things like that. So, when I had told my mom that I was expecting she just handed me the mail and we both started crying tears of joy, tears of sadness. My tears of joy were just from being able to reconnect with my mom and share this wonderful news with her. The sad tears were all the time I had lost out with my mom that whole year and half. Regardless we were back on good terms and I couldn't be any happier. It was in that moment though my mom just held me and I knew how important mothers are. And how I need to be a great example for my son and show him the things I learned from bad decisions I had made. I then went on and had my son. A week after I had my son his father left us really with no explanation other than he wasn't ready. I had to step up figure things out on my own and realize I was going to be doing this on my own. The day this all happened my mom drove to my house picked up me and my son and took us in I was still young at this moment only 16 years old. She took us in took care of us cared for us fed us. My son never went without. I will never regret the things I went through I feel like it only brought us closer and stronger. My son is now 9 years old and loved so much. Moms will always be the back bone and the heart of the family. Me and my mom are the best of friends and we actually have never been closer. We built a bond that can never be broken and at the end of the day people come and go but family especially your mother will never or should never fail you. On my weakest days my mom is always there to show me support and back me up in any situation. Unconditional love.
