I like seeing things that you don't normally see. Black people are so diverse, we do so many things, we have given so much to this world - and we are constantly giving.

I didn't plan on being a single mom, but you have to deal with the cards you are dealt the best way you can.

Once you're a mother, you're always a mom. So it doesn't matter if your child comes out green, purple, bisexual or whatever. That's who they are and you love them regardless. You guide them as best as you can. We must always proceed with love first and foremost.

There are some universal elements when it comes to motherhood - especially for Black moms. Black women are selfless. Many women think of their children before they think about themselves.

An innocent little human being was solely dependent on me! I took all the CPR and breastfeeding classes and learned quite a bit.

While there's plenty to be said for drive and talent, it was my parents' support that started me on the path that led me here today.

I think every person deserves two marriages, because you may not get the first one right. You really never knew. That's why divorce is so big. We all want it to last, but that's not always the reality of it.
