"Mom of 2 but only one lives with me and he’s 9, the other is 18 and out on his own. Currently living in PA however I’m looking to relocate to pretty much anywhere. I am super chill, kinda a homebody and love to get my hands dirty. My son loves sports and playing video games when he’s not outside. I have no family they all disowned me when I had my youngest. His father is not in his life and hasn’t been since he was 2, I have full legal and physical custody and he never calls or sees him. I have two friends who I could really say are my friends everyone else is an acquaintance. I’m 37 and trying to figure out life still and well the thought of finding a Prince Charming just doesn’t seem to be happening."

"I was working as a scientist before the market collapsed, now I'm happily teaching high school biology at a gifted school in San Mateo. I had a baby by myself using a donor and fertility assistance (paid for my that sweet biotech money that I used to make.) my kiddo is about to turn 3 and is the light of my life. Everyday at some point I think, "this was the right call, I'm so glad I moved heavan and earth to become a mom". I don't think it every second of the day (toddlers, amirite?) but I do think it every day. My parenting style is trying to keep the best parts of my upbringing and consciously trying my best the break the cycle of the other parts of my own upbringing. Some parenting books I read recently and liked: Hunt, Gather, Parent and Good Inside."
