I love my Ty Le’Mari, whom I’m expecting Feb. 4. He is such a blessing to me.

He is my hero. He saved my life, along with my parents. I have the greatest, most supportive parents ever. They have my back in everything I do as long as it’s positive. I didn’t really appreciate them until I got pregnant. I had them worried a lot. I ran away all the time. I was horrible, until I found out that I was pregnant. My baby boy changed my whole life around. I go to school every day, I try my hardest, and I’m passing all of my classes.

Ty is such a lifesaver. Sometimes, I cry, thinking about how much pain my parents had to suffer behind me and my stupid actions. It’s hard for me to say I’m sorry. I’ll show them with my action that I appreciate everything they’re doing and ever done for me. Little by little, they’ll see that I’m still trying so hard to change.
