daily support

my daily challenge is the same every day almost with some variation, it starts early in the ,morning i’ am some what single mother as my husband travels a lot and i mean a lot for long periods of item for work and this put all the house hold work on me one person with three young children to take care of from A to Z an i mean every thing from the time they weak up until they go to sleep. i have to do both parents jobs and also at the same time d my school work it would be great if i had simple help like some one who would take them to school drop them off, some alone time to relax simple tasks that any one can do that does not mean that i do not get any help my parents try to help me as much as they can but they are very old in age and tired and sick and can not take one three young children for more than a couple of hours with out me being there.  I  hope that my husbands schedule might get better in a year or so because he is help for me. So really i have many challenges that are emotional, physical, and practical in which i get support for it them from my dear parents and husband though in the best way they can according to our situation but i’am thankful; to god that i have the strength to keep going and i hope that i will keep having it fro my children’s sack.

lastly i want to say that i always thought that single mothers had a big responsibility and it was amazing what some mothers can archive for their children but now that i’am in the situation i have a very different perspective and respect to all of them i understand better.
