Hi Steemers! I Am Maria Kristina Angela Yu but you can call me Kristina or Tin . I am 30 years old living in the Philippines . 
I am a single mother of two beautiful children.Katelyn is my eldest she is 10 years old a grade 5 student. My daughter is so pretty just like me , yes i guess, she is loving , talented and smart kid she always makes me proud when it comes to her studies., she is a honor student . 
And that little cutie there is my baby boy he is turning 5 this April. A Very loving little brother to his sister and also to me , my sweet little man. He is now a nursery student.
"Being a single mom isn't an easy job, but it's definitely the best job anyone could ever ask for. "
I am proud of who I am today I know some might ask why are you a single mom where is there father what happen to you.. I will just skip the part on how do i became a single mom lets just keep it private because i dont want to embarrass their father here. anyways their father was a good man a good father and a good provider to his children.
To tell you honestly it was hard to be a single mom,Yes there will come a times that your just wondering why my life is like this and like that ,but i guess Lord did not put me in this situation if i cant handle anything right,I just go on,move on with ourlives and still getting stronger for as long as I have my children I will survive. My children is my life and my strength if it isn’t for them i couldn’t live at all, as a mother you will do anything for your children. I know I cant give them the things they want right now because i dont have a stable job for now and I am the one who is taking care of them , day and night 24/7 duty “mommy duties “. very difficult but i am happy . My children know how much I love them.there are my priorities even I am struggling in our daily lives I will keep on going for them.
And I know how lucky I am to have them,I dont have to explain to them anything to them but they understand our situation already they know how much I cryed how painful it is to have my own family broken , but thats life you never know what will tomorrow will bring.. They get used to it..
I’ve been in there situation as I grow up with out a Father,my mother and father got separated when i was 7years old ,from then i dreamed of having my own family that i will protect someday that i dont want my children to live without a father as same way as i experienced :( but to sad my children is living life same as i was before :( i dont know it just happened i fought for it but I think it was never be that way I wanted to be .Just like what my mother told me i should fight for my children.
Being a single mother isn’t my choice at all I think it was destined to happen :(
It was really hard for me growing up seing my mother do all that.I saw how brave my mother is ,i saw my mother how difficult to live without my father and to raise me and my sister alone, with the help of her sisters and grand children they help us for our needs and let us live with them.. I know how difficult it is to raise us but mom didn’t stop for giving and providing our needs. My mom is a strong woman, I saw her struggle but shes a fighter,”my mom is my hero”i am so proud to have her as my mother.I know eventhough I am in this situation now I know mama is proud of me.
My mom died as a fighter,a fighter for her children, a fighter for her life and a fighter for her sickness.
My mother was diagnosed of having Chronic Kidney Disease last February 2015 and fight her battle for almost 3years as a dialysis patient. I know its hard for her to saw me struggle for my own life as a single mom too.One time she told me “be strong kristina for your children”I know its hard for her thinking that “our history repeats in me now” , to think that we grow up that way and now her grand children will grow that way too :( ..its hard but we have to fight .
I am the onewho saw all the pain my mom got through,I am the one who take care of her , I take her to the Dialysis center for her session every week that is two times per week and we survive it financially because of my sister ,Shes the one who is providing all our mom needs from meds to hospitalization she is providing all. thats why I am thankful that i have a sister. Lyka is currently working in UK . we survive mama for almost 3year as a dialysis patient, it was hard because i have to take care of mama at the same time i have to take care of my kids but I survived all of it. with my sister we survive it all...
Our mom died last September 4,2017 . It was the most painful and hardest part of my life,until nowit was so hard to move on. I miss her so much :( ,
still thankful even though our mom left us there is still my sister who always been there for me , my sister is helping me and my kids now..it was so hard but we have to move on .
Life can be so unfair at times but we have to move on and fight to survive .
And now I am grateful because i have a chance to speak out or rather tell my story to you steemers ..I am so excited to post something about me and my everyday life as a single mother :)
