“Being a single mother is the hardest thing I have ever had to do in my life. At times I often wonder if I do enough, am I disciplining them the right way? Am I being too harsh or am I teaching a life lesson? If I am capable along with my own depression and anxiety to do this job? Or if I am a good mother? Or how do I even forgive myself when I make mistakes. I wonder all the time,” Kylie shared.

“Usually on mother’s day I direct this energy to celebrate other moms in my life. This year I want to celebrate myself. I’m proud of me. I pat myself on the back. This has made me a better person. May all moms like me who struggle and I know you do, you are doing amazing. It’s ok to be human,” she wrote.

“If you don’t feel celebrated, I CELEBRATE YOU. It’s ok to admit to your flaws but always strive to be better. Repair when you can and always whatever happens, steal a hug a kiss and listen to that story they have told hundreds of times over, let them know you see them. They are only ever this little for so long,” she continued.
