So i had written a really nice e-mail to michelle explaining how I am inspired and empowered by this blog as a single mom who's ex left after 7 years and a beautiful daughter to be with a man. He became abusive and angry, and I felt so alone and often blamed myself. Finding this blog was amazing, I'm encouraged to better myself and my situation and focus on my daughter and my own self improvement rather than loathe in self pity and blame. But anyways, the e-mail for michelle doesn't exist. Oh well. You are a brave, courageous and SMART woman, thanks for letting us other single mamas know we aren't alone!
