Suddenly Single Mom Needs to Build Support System
I'm a mom of two beautiful daughters (5 and 2.5), and just before the new year I found myself suddenly and unexpectedly single. Their dad has virtually disappeared, taking them once a week for around six hours tops. I'm hanging in there, working full time to support us, with the girls going to two lovely in-home daycares right down the road from my in-home office. But what do I do when one (or more) of them get sick and can't go to daycare? All my girlfriends have children, and I can't ask them to come risk exposure to whatever bug is...
