Dear Boys


Today is February 2, 2018 at 4:35AM, I am supposed to be working but as you well know my mind is going 100 miles an hour. You are both still to young to understand much, but as I watch you grow there is one thing I want you know. No matter where life may take you, you can accomplish anything your heart desires. Do not let anyone tell you that you cant for whatever reason. I work nights, and lose sleep to school each and every day to show you and everyone else that yes I had you and your brother at a young age, but that is not going to stop me from the goals I had set our for before you were born. I want you to be able to get up and know that everyone has set backs but those setbacks can not keep you from moving forward. No matter what life throws at you, you get up and continue to push forward. Always remember that I love you both more than the air I breathe.

 

Love Always,

Momma
