Urbana-born twenty something shares a story of falling head over heels for a little redheaded firecracker, managing his abandonment issues, figuring out how to balance a job while becoming a single mom overnight and thoughts on dating at this stage in her life. 

 Listen as Mahala explains how a weekend babysitting stint never ended, how her experience growing up in a loving family prepared her for a toddler, what it was like when she was called mom for the first time, what she ultimately wants for the little boy that swept her off her feet and how she is prepared to fight for his future safety and security. Mahala's story is testimony that motherhood and maternal instincts don't solely come from giving birth.
