Last night a group of mothers met with me at Advice & Aid Pregnancy Center.  For about an hour I responded to their legal questions regarding their struggles in raising their babies under challenging circumstances.

One mom told how her husband will be deported to Guatemala in the fall.  He will leave her with their toddler and an expected newborn.  Another recounted how she had been molested by a family member.  A young mom told how she had been raped at the age of 14.

We talked about restraining orders, child support, disability benefits, and custody.  The women impressed me with their courage, strength, and devotion to their children.  I felt privileged to serve them.
