Be grateful for the precious moments, says Muriel Bowser MothersDay
Washington, DC Mayor Muriel Bowser isn't just leading the nation's capital through a pandemic, she's serving as a political leader while being a single mom.She's been open about the rewards and challenges of single motherhood, and motherhood in general.
While her workload and professional responsibilities drastically differ from most, she and millions of mothers across the US, have something in common: their personal lives have shifted due to the novel coronavirus pandemic. "It was different because normally she wouldn't be in my office and I wouldn't let her watch TV, but we had to figure out how to make that work because I had some work that I had to get done, and she adjusted it," she told CNN.
Being a single mom is no easy feat, and sometimes you need to rely on friends and family to help you get by.
