    I couldn't raise my daughter on my own. Yes, I helped bring her in this world but my emotions, parental decisions, finances, and responsibilities needed coaching, accountability, love, and togetherness from others. Thank all that helped me every step of the way in Afiya Tye Patterson's life. #Richnesswasborn
