Gratitude Statement: My family and I have been through a lot this last year. Before this year I was the person usually helping other families but due to severe domestic violence and being pregnant (which made it harderer to work since I have had some complications and no family around to help us) we became homeless. It was so difficult and I was very depressed, but my son, he’s so wonderful. He always had a good attitude and a smile on his face! Even though week to week we had to move churchs, sleep on cots, and never had privacy, we made the best of it and got through it because my wonderful son always sees the good in things. He would always say, “Mama, we’re going to be okay and your the best mom ever!” He has no idea how much that saved me and gave me strength to get us through this. I am so thankful for my son and his shining spirit and prayers. We are thankful to Family Promise for making sure we had a place to sleep as well as support from DVSAS for their help in supporting me through the traumatic things that happened, and to the woman who leased her house for a cheaper rental price so my son and I could have a home to rent. And to Lydia Place for helping in so many more ways than rental assistance, they are so supportive ! Thank you for helping my family with some gifts this year, we are so so so so so grateful!!!
