Through every milestone of waking up, talking, first tooth, first everything – I was 35 when I had her and knew from the start that I would go it alone and I was fine with that and still am. Sometimes it’s better not to have a parent around who never wanted you around than to force them to be around. Danielle and I still face challenges BUT we will always be there to support each other as we are ALWAYS & FOREVER a TEAM “Barbara & Danielle Est. 3/26/2003″ @bhadbhabie”
