Hardest thing, ever - 30 Things!

Todays post is "What is the hardest thing you have ever experienced?"

This is a simple question to follow although I feel as if I have been blessed to not have had to experience something that is truly VERY hard.

Being a single Mother was the hardest thing I have ever experienced. Thankfully, I was blessed to never have to experience it "alone." But as I have learned and could also see in the past, just having someone by your side isn't what counts. The courage, love, wisdom and the obvious factor of extra help means so much. Just having a companion to love you and encourage you through a hard day means more than you can imagine - knowing that they have "you six" (your back as h husband would say.)

My family helped Charli and I out more than I could ever thank them for. But to be honest, working 3rd shift, hanging with a toddler then going back into work someways was killer as well as attending college. It was hard stuff. But not something that I would eve want to take out of my life.

Even if I prayed every single night for the perfect person to be sent our way I loved the time that I was able to share with CB. It is amazing that a bond between a Mother and child can be so strong at such an early age.
