I am a single mother of a 21 year old son. I have raised him on my own since he was 2. It wasn't easy but I made it through. At least I was the only voice of authority he had.

In Single Parent Christmas
I always make sure to buy the same amount of presents for me that i do for him. it takes away the feeling of misery on christmas and if you go shopping early enough the presents are a surprise to you as well. it really put the joy back in christmas and gave us something to smile about. my son still wonders about the cats going shopping so we made up all sorts of stories. he was so happy when his favorite cat gave him a gift. i made some of the ones i bought from me and some from the cats.

In Cheap Soap
No it doesn't. some of them have moisturizers already added. palmolive is good and ones that have aloe are good also.

In When Your Child Asks If Santa Is Real
Children don't like their dreams destroyed so I try my best not to. Everyone needs a little majic in thier lives. They are little for such a short time. Letting them keep believing will actually make them better people.
