What makes you a #GoodMama?
I feel what makes me a good mom is the fact that I continue to constantly work on improving myself and my family. I refuse to be complacent with my current situation. I strive everyday to be a positive role model for my daughter. I constantly think about how my actions today will effect her future. I want to teach her everything I know and also how to learn about everything I don’t know. I work everyday to not only set an example for her but also to set the bar that I want her to surpass.
Nothin' make a man feel betta than a woman...

Accept that you are human, you will make mistakes, and sometimes you will fail, but you must brush yourself off and try again. Most importantly ASK for help when you need it, and rest when you can, the dishes, cleaning and whatever ever else can wait. [/iconbox]
