So i walk into the kitchen and see Evy opening a cup soup, I reach over to help but she pulls away and says no mami, yo so I walk away... then come back a minute later and shes closing the microwave.... baby girl is growing so fast and shes so independent. I have worked these first four years of her life and have been greatful enough to enjoy the little time I do have with my babies but I feel like its not enough. I want to be there to pick her up from school, help her with homework, go on field trips, take her lunch, and be a house wife.... Well, unfortunately thats not the cards I was handed in this life. I come from a family of migrant workers the people who work their asses off day in and day out. The people who dont make enough to live luxuriously but are not poor enough to get help.... and that has to stop!! I am not okay with just getting by. I want more for me and for my family as a whole!! That is why I do what I do. I never thought that I would get to say that I work hard for my kids to have a better life... because growing up, I had it better than my mom so I thought that was good enough. Now, I see that there is more to life than working.... especially when you have passion for what you do and what you want. It has taken me a while to realize how to get where I want to be but I wouldnt change any of it!! I am proud of how far I have come. I am proid of the work I put in because after almost 10+ long years of struggle im finally able to see the fruits of my labor. From poor college student to over worked and under paid CPS worker to super mom... I want to say THANK YOU to everyone who has been there for me, there with me and who continue to stand by me!! You know who you are.
