I am sharing with you all the short version of my story. Accepting and forgiving yourself for your past stupidity is not easy but it is necessary. Life is filled with the ups and downs that make us who we are today. My journey to this place was not a smooth one, but I did not give up on myself or my children. Although I never imagined I would be in this exact position, I knew that I would do everything in my power to be a great mom and example (past mistakes aside)
