Hey guys, I see your comments and I appreciate each and everyone of them. I'm not in a space to reply properly but I promise that I will. Thank you so much for your kind words and speaking so much life upon me. God bless you all ❤
As long as ubona ba sikuthanda kangakanani sisi... That's basically the whole point. Otherwise, the sun will DEFINITELY rise again in your life Hopefully uMilani ubhetele kakhulu naye bethuna 💚❤️
Hey Mandy, You don't know the impact you make on us (single moms) by being so transparent. you make us feel like we are not alone. Chin up love, you are amazing and you are doing so well. I promise you, you are something to be proud of ❤
As a child raised by a single mother, I feel your pain mommy. I’ve seen my mother and I always prayed for her, I cried for her and I still do. Single mothers go through a lot. I need you to know that there’s nothing wrong with you, it is not your fault and as much as you don’t feel like it, you are worthy. I’m glad you don’t act “strong” and you are able to talk about your feelings. It will not get easier but it will get better, it will be bearable and you will come out of this situation better ❤️. I love you so much. Peace unto you 🤍.
You know Amanda, one thing you have to your advantage is the ability to use your voice. So many people are drowning out there but they just don't know how to use their voices to cry out for help Had you not used your tool yesterday, your sister wouldn't have known & your kids would probably be without a mom today. You are actually stronger than you actually believe. You are the voice to the voiceless. You are an instrument of hope. Unfortunately for you, you gotta taste the fire in order for you to fully utilize your voice for the multitudes to fully hear. Your virtual family is here for you sis. We love you. Take heart mama. The rejection you received from the deadbeats, is no way near the love your virtual family has for you and your children. Thank you for walking this journey with us. We'll support you the best way we individually can & it starts by not skipping ads. You have an angel in Noma and she has an angel in you. You were born for each other just like your girls are born for each other. You'll be okay sthandwa sam 💚❤️. I'm sorry for the long write up but I just wanted to pour my heart out since I can't physically hug you 😘
The kindness you're receiving is a reflection of your goodness. Be open to receiving with your full heart because you are so deserving. Thank you Kwanele! Not filling the pool with a bucket 😂😭Old doctors are best for children. Praying for you to find peace and comfort during this pressing time ❤️
I’m a teenager but I’ve been religiously following your channel & this has to be by far the most saddening video I’ve seen.You’re doing great,honestly !!!Your RU-vid army is with you every step of the way moms😘
I had to literally come back and watch the adds twice ...hugs mama as a single mother l understand... Honestly it's never easy, prayer has really helped me,l cry, l talk to God unashamed, l pour my heart to the bream, currently am even jobless but the way l survive l honestly don't know God provides. I want you to know that it shall be definitely ok... Your a great mum and your videos encourage me when am down that's how important you are. It shall be ok
I’m so sorry Mandy🥺. I honestly wish I could take your pain and carry it for you. I need you to know that it’s okay to not be okay. You’ve been on autopilot mode for the longest time, you’re in my prayers. God will help you ❤️.
I am only 4 mins into the video but I have to comment. Wena there’s something about you that say “please be kind, take care of me” not in a bad way. You have a big heart, big energy, big personality. Your transparency makes us feel like we know you and it hurts when you are not ok, we just want to take care of you. It’s just that nami I am not in the greatest of spaces otherwise I also want to take care of you and be a big sister so that you know uma sekubheda you can run to me. You just loveable maan and happiness suits you and we hurt when you hurt. We love you too much. I will invite myself so we can have a series addressing mental health educating and equipping people. We love you maan. You must invite me… God bless Kwanele and everyone on this channel with a big heart. We love you, now let me watch… you are gorgeous in and out. I love you ❤️ Let me watch
Hey Mandy: it takes courage to open up and be vulnerable about mental health. You talking about it is the first step to take. Not sure if you've tried them but if not give SADAG- it may not be full help like a paid sit-down therapist but they help & it's free. You are not alone, as a person or as a mother in all you do. I don't remember which one of your blogs I watched over the weekend where you said maybe you are experiencing this so that others learn from it, strength to you. I think one of the hardest things we need to acknowledge is that our parents didn't have it easy, not at all. They just hid the pain very well. Sending you lots of love & light...
Yoh!!! There’s so much I want to say. Thanks to Kwanele for spreading so much kindness,all the queens are happy. First of all,you are doing all you can to figure it all out,you give your self so much grace. I’ve noticed no matter how tough it gets for you,you soldier on so gracefully to ensure your kids are surrounded by positive energy. That’s such a great and intentional characteristic to have. You can rant all day ,no need to feel bad about that,if it comforts you ,even better we are here for that. The hardest decisions to make sometimes are usually the ones that set you free and open room for breakthrough because God had plans for you when you were still in your mothers womb,plans to prosper you. As much as all those negative scenarios may come to surface ,always know that they are not true. You and your family are destined for greatness. All will be well mama,maybe not just yet but embrace all those emotions now,they’ll come joy soon! All you said is valid , you are brave. You are loved dearly💕❤️
I also struggle to receive kindness even from family, it makes me so emotional because am used to doing things for myself and others around me. Sending hugs and kisses your way. I love you Mandy and my kids (Alwande and Milani)
Mandy don't be too hard on yourself, trust me there's a lot of us in your situation. You are strong, you are brave and always remember tomorrow belongs to God. 💕
Hey Mandy.I wish you and your kiddies attract more kindness because you are amazing…We appreciate you for putting out content even when things are difficult. Love and light❤
I enjoy how real your content is. Thank you for sharing those parts with me. It is truly inspiring. You are one of the bravest people that I have ever come across. My prayer for you is that everything comes together and works out for you. You deserve goodness and success. You deserve peace. Please be okay Mandy. I am sending you love and strength. ❤❤
Hey Girlie- Thank you for your videos and transparency. Your videos got me through maternity leave and going through lots of new emotions and feelings that I hadn’t had before. I pray you realize that your children will one day say that they’re so proud of you for going after your dreams/calling and not settling despite being a single mother. There’s children out here who grow up to be adults and resent their mothers for not showing them how to go after what they want. We can tell our kids all we want but it’s through our actions, that they will know how to show up in their own lives. Many blessings to you 💛🧿
Some of us needed to also hear this, you are not being the mad black woman instead you are also helping some of us be okay with breaking down that it happens and it's okay.big ups to you sis eventually it won't hit this deep❤️
Yazi Mandz .I feel like you’ve been living my life wena . You are not alone in this.. we sacrifice a lot to provide for our kids who don’t have fathers .. even having to put up with BS at workplaces because we think what’s going to happen to my kids if I quit. All I’m gonna tell you is KULUNGILE uzobaright nje futhi you will find another job while you hustle on the side ..I had to quit one of my side hustles this year . I just couldn’t anymore it was a lot. My body and mind couldn’t take it anymore .. but having my kids next to me gives me so much hope .you will be fine sisi .. we will talk on WhatsApp ..LOVE YOU LODS KE sisi ❤️❤️hbd ..by the way Stop blaming yourself for quiting
So emotional watching… sending lots of warm hugs Amanda, you’re such a strong woman 🥺 I pray for a life of softness for you where you don’t have to be so strong anymore 🙏🏾
I was looking forward to this vlog the entire weekend it's now programmed in my mind that I need a dose of Your amazingness at the beginning of the week ... thank you Mandy continue being a great mom that you are ❤ you're more stronger than you think .
Oh Kwanele girl...that is sooo sweet of you. God bless you sisi. Oh bandla...Milani...she's really affectionate. Rant on sis...fully supported. I wish I could just scream sometimes...but I just cry it off.
Ohh mommy🥺🥰 you're not alone my love, and you're very fortunate to have Norma🥺😊 I went to therapy 3 instances already this year, and my point is that I get you my love🥰🤗 with depression you're fine the one moment and then you're not fine the next, it's ok, I'm still learning to be kinder to myself bcos being a single mom myself to 2 different deadbits, a first born child and the first to graduate means that I'm not expected to feel pain or not ok about things, it means that I must put everyone else first and forget about me, this year I told myself I will not do that, I'm cutting off wherever is not for me in my life, and the first time I said "no" to family was probably the last I heard from some of them, and I'm know God has a bigger plan for us mommy He is going to see us through. Don't give up mommy, I have 2 teenage boys, a 7yr old and life time medical condition to battle with, lets do this my love we can🥰 I love you sthandwa sam ❤
The last part of your vlog left me in tears, I think maybe it just hits so close to home. I hope you come out of that dark emptiness soon. Also you did good by asking for help💜 sending you lots of love💜
“Someday, everything will make perfect sense. So for now, laugh at the confusion, smile through the tears, and keep reminding yourself that everything happens for a reason.”
Bless your sister for being there for you. And bless you for being able to reach out to her when in need. You both so so well in nurturing each other❤️ you are beyond blessed to have each other... You shared in your sister tag the sacrifices you made for her and look at God today🥺🥺🥺 you deserve this kind of love Mandy😘😘😘
Sending you love, light, and strength. You sound like you had a similar week to mine. I cried myself to sleep last night but I prayed for help literally I feel so fragile. I pray for nothing but the best for you. God will open doors for you that you didn't even know were there.
You are so brave Amanda. I admire your strength and courage even when times are ridiculously tough. You don't take the easy way out, no matter how hard it is and I respect you for that. Your kids are so blessed to have you as their mom. Your sacrifice will pay off one day. Keep pushing through. You are fighting for your girls as well. Thank God for the support that you have around you. You are so loved Amanda. I pray for God's abundant favor upon your life and the life of your girls. Lots of love, hugs and kisses from Aus.♥️
Ahhhh the pain I felt seeing Milani scratching like that simply because I've been there with my son, I remember you said Milani has eczema so this may be it since the season is changing.. I used bionike products from dischem and the synalar ointment and they helped A LOT!! I would suggest you try them w Milani. Also, I hope you get better with all you're dealing with and we appreciate you doing vlogs for us although you're not okay and to show that we appreciate you WE DO NOT SKIP ADS!!😅❤️❤️❤️
I have been following your content RELIGIOUSLY from the day i found your channel. Your honesty and transparence is so refreshing and you help me put some of my feelings in words. Feelings i didnt know how to describe. So sad you had to resign from work yet again. The last part of the video left me in tears. I just hope things come together soonest. Love and light my dear
Mandy,you are doing the best you can ,my mum raised me single handedly she passed on in 2003 and if I could get just one wish is just to see her lovely face again.I was young but I remember every extreme she went for me and even today I'm still reaping from that.You're loved.
Sending love and strength to you Mama. Trust in the Lord with all your Heart and Lean not on your own understanding. All shall come to pass. We love you.
Gosh gal I love you. You're a strong woman because of quitting without plan two again. That's a bold step and happy for you and happy that you're comfortable with your decision, I support you gal. I know God has something for you and it shall be well. As a single jobless mum of three 13, 11 and 9 myself, I feel you gal. It shall be well and you're doing a great job. You're always challenging and encouraging me. We are here for you and thank you for the vlog even when you're in a bad state. We love you 😘❤️ 🫂. To our internet aunt from Switz thank you for putting a smile on Milani's face.
Hi amazing mommy, thank you so much for allowing yourself to share not only your life journey but for indirectly validating to probably 90% of your subbies that they too are not alone while facing life challenges, not only are you catching lemons but turning them into lemonade but sharing, i for one do not have a child of my own but i can without a single doubt say i look forward to he content not only because it entertaining but because i get to be prepared if i ever have kiddies of my own ( GOD WILLINGLY) and you have made me aware that i need to HEAL!!!!!! because being a mom is an extreme sport😅❤and because i was also raised by a single mom so i get to appreciate her based on you sharing your difficulties since she might not be able to fully open up to me because i am her child may want to protect me still from self regret and and and, overall want am saying is you are where God intended you to be to teach and heal other so I thank Him for your life and i pray that He continues to save,heal you so your are able to share with us and He works through you to show us His wonders. ❤❤THANK YOU FOR HOLDING ON TO LIFE SIS❤❤The devil is a lier shame!!.
Lots of love and light to you, keeping fighting it will get better. Don't give up your babies still need you. They can't lose you too. I know it's hard but keep fighting ❤
I'm so so sorry for the pain you go through but I would like to let you know that if you focus on what is not there you'll keep hurting and kids see your pain and that's what will hurt them the most. I was raised by a single parent and my mind was set on that what I don't know wouldn't hurt me n it didn't. Only seeing my mother down would make me feel sad.
I am so sorry that you have to go through this alone. It is not easy to raise kids alone, but you are doing a fantastic job and have an excellent support structure. One day you will look back and smile. Strength to you.
Your life is so amazing, you being the best mom and an example to be emulated I just love everything about your vlogs.You are stronger than you think mummy.Keep holding and striving on for those two angels.
I pray that GOD gives you strength through this difficult time. I am glad that you speak about your feelings and you able to all your friends and sister to cry it all out. Be strong sisi, GOD has a plan for you. Pray and speak to GOD, his the only that knows you better than yourself. You also in prayers, you will be fine.
Sending you love and light mama🤍✨ The same God who carried you through your past season will carry you through the next. You’re loved and appreciated!!!
You are definitely right out single parent mothers never knew anything about depression and the emotions they felt, I've found myself breaking down and going through your emotions cause wow single parenting is hard and sometimes society just expects us to be Okey cause it's common. Hope you feeling better.X.X.X
Ooh!! Speedy recovery to Milani❤️❤️❤️ Oh!! Mandy, I’m so so sorry that you are going through this phase, wish I could give you a hug right now😩😩🥹All will be well mommy. This Vlog really touched me. Be well mommy🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾
Wow such an emotional video, Mandy don't worry, the lord is watching you, you will probably even get a better job than pays a better salary. Just be strong for your kids and the lord got you, I'm sorry you going through whatever you going through, you are an amazing person and I wish you all the best ❤️
Sending love to you and your girls love. You're such a beautiful soul may the good Lord see you through this situation and may you get another job that will give you much peace and joy in Jesus name❤️❤️❤️
Ahh Mandy, I know the frustration of having a sick baby. My doctor advised me to go over the counter pharmacy before I consult because they don't give young ones antibiotics. Speedy recovery to baby Milani❤️
Hey Amanda,just want to let you know that you are enough the way you are,you are enough for your kids which is the most important thing...so many people are suffering from depression but they are not as bold as you...you're a superwoman for showing us all that sometimes it's okay not to be okay and having family and people that support you is very important...So much love from Kenya😍😍😍I enjoy watching your vlogs
I hear you I know how you feel same situation feel so powerless and defeated I've been going through alot of negative thoughts. But dont fight yourself too hard. I know the brokenness that we have inside its hard to release cause everyday we're reminded of your situation. Just sit n breathe n give yourself some silence. we will get through this.
Keep strong sis❤,i have so much respect for you kakhulukazi because you have the courage to say exactly how you feel and I can personally relate ,infact I see myself in you and I respect you ,i know God will see you through.
Been following you since and you make me strong as i am in a very dark space. I feel like it's hard being a single mother who is unemployed and have no support system at all but your posts make me strong and give me hope that 1 day i will be able to take care of my baby girl the way i want to. Shout out to you mommy😭❤😘
Argh Mandy 💔 I'm sorry you're going through this kodwa kuzolunga and you're doing well! You're enough for your kids, you're doing a great job as a mom and even if things didn't work out, everything is falling in place. Hope Milani is better ❤️ take care of yourself Sisi.
For the 1st time I watch 30 minutes ads, well not really watch but I let it play while I do something else. Anything for you Mandy ❤️ God will certainly meet you at your point of need.
Look how much strength you have, you dust yourself up and continue with the vlog, we all are going through things sisi never ever feel alone, you in our thoughts, we love you. Keep moving...
I speaking Healing over your life...you may not be ohk for now but not for a long time as you say,thank you for being so relatable.i can't wait for the sit down video😋.God loves you so much and your Ancestors got you mghe.❤️
And another thing that I've been meaning to share with you regarding Milani's grumpiness in the mornings. My daughter did the same and her teacher advised that she is grumpy because she sleeps late and is still very tired by the time I get her ready for school. So put her to bed before 8pm. Children Milani's age need 10-12hrs of sleep. Since I started putting my toddler to bed early, she is so much better in the mornings. Please let me know if this helps. 🙏
Kwanele Thank you shem her gesture so amazing. One thing I know for sure is that us single moms we are not raising them kids alone child we have a community assisting us.
Ohw Mandy, I also handed in my resignation with no Plan B or another job but I just couldn't stay there anymore. Literally depleted and had no more to give. Environment is pure toxic and it was affected my health. I'm finishing end of this month as well. After that, I don't know🤷🏿♀️🤷🏾♀️I'm trusting God and my Ancestors at this point. I pray for us, I pray for you during your mental health struggles. I'm sending you Love, Strength and Light. And we thank God for Noma❤❤❤
