How we went from 3 to 5 🖤

Our love story!

I became a single mom in 2020, when I had my oldest daughter Ember.

I dated someone else and had my middle daughter Saige in 2021, where I became a single mother again.

After being single for a year exactly. June 29 2022 I met my husband Raymond.

In June 2023 we welcomed our final daughter Judith.

I went from being so unhappy for myself and my girls ember and Saige, I literally met my husband on Facebook. Added him on Snapchat, and the VERY next day he’s at my door step, asking me to be his girlfriend.

We have been together 2 years (Come June 29 2024). And we got married August 26 2023.

He’s allowed me to be a stay at home mom and I get the pleasure of watching our babies grow up.

It’s hard not working but it’s worth it!
