I'VE BEEN STRUGGLING TOO| DAY IN THE LIFE OF A SINGLE MOM| Tres Chic Mama

[@CR-tz3vk]

I’ve been a single mom since my daughter was 2 months old, she’s now 2 years old and I’m still here single as can be. I love your channel it’s so relatable and modern! I’ve never related to a KZbin mom as much as I relate to you. Thank you for sharing your life with us lol your daughter is such a little doll and you’re absolutely stunning. 💖

[@L0YIS017]

I have recently came across your KZbin channel when I was searching for stuff to do with my 19 month old baby girl. As a single mother of two, I used to feel so overwhelmed alot especially because I stayed unemployed for 6months. So, in the past I used to just switch on the TV and leave her in front of it for hours. Last night whilst scrolling on Instagram I saw a post that made me realise that I wasn't doing any educational activities with my daughter. Today, I shifted, played with her taught her ABCs using one activity I saw you doing I also downloaded her a puzzle games on her iPad. Thank you so much for posting and your daughter is so adorable❤️

[@MsLunaLove89]

I watch your videos every day with my cup of coffee and it’s so refreshing and I love to see you and your daughter and your real life scenarios because that’s reality thank you thank you thank you so much you are keeping me sane through this time

[@TresChicMama]

MsLunaLove89 Well Thank you for watching & commenting! This helps keep me sane as well haha 💗

[@samanthalewis5219]

Thank you for always putting out fun and uplifting videos. I know everyone is having a super hard time right now. I'm in Utah and last week we had a 5.7 earthquake less then 5 miles from my house. Talk about super scary. And ever since we have been having constant aftershocks. Now to top it off we woke up to snow yesterday and even more about 5 inches today. My 2 year old son and I just love watching you two. Thanks for what you do and keeping my mind occupied and not thinking about everything that's going on.

[@erinsaumenig1236]

The part where Sydney put her hand up to you when you were talking and she was showing you something on the tablet was TOO cute. Girls are too funny. Glad you guys are hanging in there!!! Doesn’t help anything with New England weather. I also love seeing your meals even if they’re simple!!

[@jodifreeborn667]

You inspire me every video to keep teaching my toddler and i love it

[@AlexinWonderlandVlog]

Glad to hear you guys are doing okay and I'm glad you had a really good day (after a couple of ordinary ones). You're so good for wanting to put out the positive vibes, even though you might not always be feeling them. But we don't mind if you vent as well. xo I'm going to try some of your post-it and sticker dot ideas this weekend with Mr 2. :) I have an idea that Sydney might enjoy! The other day I made some ice cubes with food colouring and we painted with them on big sheets of butchers paper. He loved it!

[@curlygirl9023]

Just Incase no one has told you lately... you are doing your best, you are amazing and I hope that your page continues to flourish because you are literally one of the most real ppl on KZbin! Sydney is a lucky lucky 🍀 girl!

Thank your for what you do! From Oregon with 4 kids and waiting to see if my husband can work from home soon but sending prayers to you and your baby girl. Your video is just what I needed you don’t even know thank you 🙏 💓

[@TresChicMama]

Leticia Porras Oh mama, 4 kids is a lot haha Yet st the same time, a lot of love ❤️ 🥰 Praying your hubby can work from home & stay safe

[@KathyMLifestyle]

I feel you too being a single mom! I love my girls, but it is sometimes hard not having another adult to chat with. I am still working my full time job (luckily I can work at home now) but I have two kids at home that normally go to school and daycare so trying to keep up ideas to entertain them too. Thanks for the vlogs and recipes. :) Makes me feel not so alone.

[@lovechaos532]

You two are so adorable! I love how attentive to Sydney you are, even if you are in the middle of something. I need to work on that lol. Anyways I definitely need to try that light because I have been feeling very tired and getting headaches lately, im not sure why, maybe it will help. Also, I saw your little tiktok dance that assume was filmed on the same day as this, I love the light heartedness and positivity it showes ❤️

[@TresChicMama]

Leanna Rollins Oh my goodness you are so kind!!!! Thank you in advance 😭😭❤️❤️

[@DahliaPeesly]

Girl I'm struggling too! I'm such a homebody but it's like lately I'm going massively stir crazy. Especially since the weather is so nice and I can't even take my poor girl to the park. We don't have a yard, except for an area where all the adjoining apartment kids play. But I'm nervous letting her go there because all the kids still keep playing together and leave out all their toys. Which my girl wants to play with too. I feel extra worried. Ugh I need my own house and yard! Lol

[@hillcountryhands6604]

Loved the video as usual!❤️ I’m glad your light is making you feel better! It’s been sunny here this week and I’ve been trying to sit out to get sunshine everyday and it’s helping my mood so much! Can’t wait to see how the bathroom turns out!😍

[@malicor.8247]

If you love crepes, check out the recipe for Swedish pancakes. I don't like too many sweet things in the morning, so I prefer to eat them with fresh fruit. I also like to make a fruit compound to add on top. You can mix together fresh fruit with butter or mix jam with butter for extra flavor/sweetness.

[@jjescal6164]

I'm so grateful because my sons preschool sends home school activities including all the supplies to help parents otherwise I would be going crazy.

[@blindhousewife8866]

I’ve always love to be home but since I’ve had a baby, I love to take her out. So, now that it is for bidden it makes me wanna go out more. I think that also is what makes people so anxious. Your videos are great by the way.

[@diyteknix]

Today I'm particularly struggling. I embrace being a single mom but I have Always tried my best to ensure my son gets a relationship with his dad. But seems this quarantine life is exposing just how much I have bent over for that relationship to exist. I just feel so sad for my child who doesn't deserve this... But i know the sadness will pass. I just want this venom building inside of me to dissappear because I have never in my life started to send ill vibrations to another.

I love watching "Brunch with Bobby." He is a trained chef and an Iron Chef. He makes brunch at a serious level of deliciousness upon deliciousness. Hey, pretty good crepe technique there! The warm sunshine coming through that window is too good to reject due to proximity to a neighbor. I am so convinced we will have to live with altered lifestyles pretty much worldwide as a result of this that I am busy trying to be creative about our new normal and make it acceptable to the children, in particular, that things will never be the same and since we cannot control it, we must adapt to it. Not laying it on too heavily to frighten them, beyond scaring them into following the hygiene protocols. LOL. The hand-washing et al are so important and social-distancing. They are good already with the use of the inner elbow/elbow crook for sneezing, coughing and the namaste bow in greeting. It's pretty disturbing that good things from our former lives may be gone for good, but it beats the heck out of our lives being in danger from an unseen killer virus. So, I'll mourn what's gone forever when I know what died with this pandemic. In the worst of the Dark Ages, the peasants had something like 248 holidays per year. Don't know how they got any work done for the lord of the manor and it is not as good as being able to vote and determine one's own path in life, but they did get to party. Ah, you all got a March snowstorm. That snowman is a serious gent of the military type I think with all those buttons, uniform-like. Sydney did a pretty good job with that tablet game. A herringbone pattern can be done freehand by you, if you draw well. It will look interesting. I think it's good for your mental health about the piles of toys in the living room going away so that you feel less overwhelmed or confined or possessed by all the stuff. It allows you or any visitors some adult space, that the kids can join. We are hear and cheering you both onward. We will reply, so you know in this dreadful time that someone is listening. We are all slogging through this and having varying levels of graceful success and astonished anger depending upon the day and hour and quarter of the moon. She's a bright child. Good for you for making her take the time to find the right letter because process is extremely important in learning for fields like math, language, science. She just gets excited about her own mastery of the topic. Now is the time for household projects when you really can't go out much and the weather is not the best yet. Some white fish is very mild and can be a great, healthy substitute if you cannot get chicken. Do they have small turkeys instead? Will you all eat pork chops? Or a pork roast that will produce leftovers? There were plenty of mashed potatoes, unless you wanted to save them for a potato pancake in the morning. Can't wait to see the bathroom feature wall.

Hi Haley! Hey have you or would you be willing to try Yoga? I’m a high strung lady who always needs to be in control of order and cleanliness etc... with three kids 10,8,& 2 it’s a struggle. But I found yoga 🧘‍♀️ so relaxing so positive and uplifting ... truly helps manage stresses and what we cannot control better. Just with the breathing alone does wonders for our health and mental standing. Take care momma. We are all in a similar boat.

[@TresChicMama]

Roxanna Ramos I have never tried yoga actually! I never thought I would be good at it 😬🤦‍♀️

[@roxannar3820]

I was SOOOO against trying it. In my head I thought ( being the inpatient busybody I am) I had no time to slow down nor the patience for it. However I came around after trying it by following you tube yoga videos. There are GREAT ones like Yoga with Adrienne or SarabethYoga) are amazing for starters. It’s been my lifeline for the last couple of years. I worked up the courage to join a live class after about 3-4 months of practicing on my own. But it has been the best. And really yoga instructors are kind of like shoes, you have to find your fit. the style they teach and what you’re comfortable starting at or working through is up to you. Just saying though, it’s been the BEST medicine for tension, aches, pains, ailments, mood, everything... I continue because I have chronic pain and different health issues but it’s the best.
