Gift, Polite, Game

Think, Big, Expert

I truly have a village supporting me. My son has godmothers, godfathers, grandparents and so many others in his life who love him as much as I do. They're there for both of us. I may not have a mate or husband, but I'm definitely not a single parent. Jill Scott

Husband, Love, Grandparents
