By the time he gets out you will not remember him. I'm a single mom with 2 kids as well. You right you don't have time to do anything. My kids have been gone most of the summer with their Dad's folks and all I have done is lay around the house and sleep when I'm not working. I guess just enjoying the time alone but they will be back. I don't know if you have friends that you trust that could keep the kids for you while you take a little time for yourself because you so badly need that. Sometimes you can get so weighted down with working/children that you don't take the time for yourself. You say your kids inspire you so do this for them take care of mommy so she will live long enough to take care of them. I know those kids are precious. So hang in there, don't give up and enjoy life a little bit. Keep you head up. Good luck.

Honey I am so sorry that is a bad place to be in at such a young age. You made your life what it is so face it head on, life is not about dating it is about being the best mother in the world. I know it seems really hard but time goes by so fast and you are still so young take the time to spend with your kids they will not always be your little babies. Dating is nice but keep your kids first and true love will find you. The more you look the less you will find when you are not looking it will hit you in the face. Look for friends and don't make the mistake of introducing them to your kids until you decide that is the man for you. Date 6 months a year what ever it takes for you to know he will be staying around and if the guy can not understand why you want it that way he is not worth keeping around. Keep your head up and always remember the only thing in life that is most important is keeping you and your kids happy. Seek happiness in yourself not in a man.

First being a parent is a hard job being a single parent is hell. You have to love the state when they can't give a single working mother help but can give a maother who sits home and does nothing all the breaks. I know you love your children but you have also got to make time for you. You are still young and have a lot out there to enjoy. Make an arangement with a friend that you will watch their child one night so they can get out and they watch yours so you can, join a parents without partners group as they have activities for the children as well as the parents. This is a lot to go through at your age but sounds like you have your kids interest at heart. Good luck
