A Day in My Life: Single Mom Edition!

[@Ipickthisone]

I love how supportive your community is. Never complains about sponsorships or tears you down. Love how you make quality time with your daughter a priority.

[@yvetternld45]

Being a single mom, comes with it ups and downs just like everything else in life. But being a mom is very rewarding as well, I don’t think I would change that part of my life, made me the woman that I am today. Cute card. Happy Holidays to you and Ziya.

[@812BrownSugar]

Me too

[@nicoleferguson6310]

I absolutely agree with you Raven on this. My 3 year old just had a melt down because I took the iPad from her. There has to be a limit on the screen time to do other fun activities.

[@najwadeckard713]

We must help our children disconnect daily. My goodness, what would they do if power went out for a day or so?

[@disgir85]

not a mom but totally agreed :)

[@JassyJass95]

Raven: you sure you don’t wanna do a craft? Ziya: EYE-PAD 😂😂 she’s so funny and adorable without even trying

[@jawnmiya]

“Who told you that? NO ONE! “ she’s so adorable 😂🥰

Tip- Vaseline is a sealant so if you really want to stay hydrated and moisturized, apply a lotion or cream and then put the Vaseline over it. It keeps the lotion from rubbing off and really allows it to sink in!

[@kayp2311]

This works for my extremely dry skin.

[@ericamcwright9632]

Yes the best way 😊

[@88ashjen]

Yes! I have extra dry skin and I’ve been doing that since I was young.

Baking tip: To avoid the chocolate chips from sinking to the bottom, roll them in flour before adding them.

[@Cynthia__F]

GREAT TIP!!!

Lmaoo I love that ad

[@ShanaiTakiyah]

Lmao the infamous ad

[@sandyg.3454]

I’ve been an empty nester for quite a while now. My daughters are 38 and 34 years old. I am a single mother, I raised my children totally alone without a support system. Juggling a full time career as well. Raising my children, teaching and pouring into them was the hardest and most fulfilling job ever! You are raising and teaching people who you want to grow up to be responsible citizens. My daughters are phenomenal women and I’m so blessed to be their mother.❤️ P.S. I’m also a grandmother of four incredible children!❤️

[@Curls_Untamed]

Raven: “Do you like it? Do you like the color?” Ziya: “This is not my favorite color!” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 You gotta love Ziya’s shady moments.

[@cheynne20456]

I weak yes 😂 😂

[@danihamm8095]

She is such an Aries ♈️... Hey, we like what we like 🤷🏾‍♀️

[@Curls_Untamed]

Dani Hamm80 yesss. People tell me all the time that I’m shady. I’m like what, I was just being blunt, lol 😂 #AriesGang ♈️ and Ziya and I share a birthday, so it cracks me up every time.

[@danihamm8095]

My husband tells me that I’m unappreciated when he gets me things I don’t like/that aren’t me. I’m like, well I did say thank you, you should just know me by now 🤷🏾‍♀️. I just hope you kept the receipt. Sorry, not sorry 😆

[@danihamm8095]

But I love their Aries/ Virgo combo. My daughter is a Virgo, so I’m just watching their relationship in reverse ☺️

[@LifeAsCortland]

Ziya is a whole mood. She’s hilarious. 😂

[@najwadeckard713]

That's Aries for ya!! So cute though.

[@yahijracastilloesteves8632]

[@blessedhighlyfavoured3697]

Your videos are arguably the most professionally done. I always look forward to seeing them. You take this seriously and I appreciate that. I am not a big commenter but I am an avid watcher... needed to let you know...Keep up the good work!

[@KarlaC233]

Couldn't agree with you more!

[@linda.westin]

I love that you truly focused on the road when driving and not looking into the camera much. And talked when the car was still. I see KZbinrs look into the vlog camera so much when driving and even saw KZbinrs babysit and look into the camera so much while on the road. I don't see why anyone does that when babysitting someone else's baby. So anyhow, please continue focusing your eyes on the road the lovely way you do, it's so important to not vlog when driving, don't even look into the camera at all. Stay safe. That goes for everyone that reads this. 💕😊

[@swilli36]

Ziya, "I...PAD!" Loved the way Raven handled that little tantrum.

[@melaninfreeflowing4248]

Anytime Raven gets a new sponsorship I scream “Yes Raven!”. I’m literally so proud of you! ❤️❤️❤️

[@reese1337]

Being a single Mom is really difficult To all the women reading that haven’t had children yet Please get married to the right man. Raising children is difficult they have needs and need both parents. Marry a good man that is not a skirt chaser that is dedicated to his family long term! kids consume/require a lot of time. For Example: listening to them, taking them places, homework,sports, arts & crafts, play dates and vacations and discipline don’t have kids with a random NEVER! You get out of your kids what you put into them! The less time you spend with them the worse consequences!

[@yolir.u9452]

WOF Chicago thanks !!!!!🌸🥰

[@jalynneevans]

(not hate) typically some men will put on a show before marriage and act like there this great man and will be such a family man... then after marriage they show there real colors and thats how a toxic relationship forms. I know because that's how my parents were and my mom put up with my dad for 18 years.

[@TeeBreBee]

I loved everything about this video! You’ seem like such a responsible adult and a great mom! Literal goals👏🏾

[@hinatasavagetm1328]

I really love how she expresses herself. Like she lets you know if you don’t like something.

[@missynyc08]

Love the activity and the fact that you kept your promise!! It’s hard doing anything when you’re tired, let alone be a mom/example! I felt that in my soul. Great job Mommy and Ziya!! 💕

Although being a single parent isn’t ideal I honestly look up to you Raven, and it’s not that you make being a single mom look easy you make being a mom who gets things done to make sure their child is happy, healthy educated and disciplined all while having fun look easy. Just these little things and the bits you show us makes me especially happy and confident enough to feel like whatever happens when I have a child, as long as I put that effort in to see my child satisfied then that’s all that matters. Loved this video Raven ❤️‼️🤞🏽🙏🏽

To help prevent ashiness, mix your preferred lotion with Vaseline when applying. I’ve been doing this my whole life and when you do it consistently it makes it harder to get rid of moisture.
