Starting over<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cSometimes starting over looks like this. Today I woke up just thinking of how God has brought me far. Yaani sometimes I look back and I am speechless.

It’s no longer about you but your child. His answer is yes and amen, Don’t give up,\u201d she wrote.   <\/p>\n
