I well remember those years of single-parenting when I worked full time, returned to college, lived off student loans, and labeled food so my son’s friends wouldn’t devour our meager rations.

My children grew up in lack but learned tenacity by watching me live it out. They are both thriving as adults with children and careers of their own.

You are modeling this for your children. What a gift they are receiving!
