A.K.A: Momma Ariel/ Mommy-pants
"Hi! I'm Haydyn's mom! I'm 28 years old in physicality; but according to my mom, I've been 30 since I was three. I'm the main content creator here at Raising Haydyn!"
Background:
I have been a "step-up" parent since I was 14. My nickname "Momma Ariel" was given to me by my oldest son Preston, whom I raised with his mother for nearly 14 years now. I have 6 kids, but (currently), Haydyn is my only biological child. His brother Preston is my "God" son. Neither of them was born in the usual way, but we're glad they came to joining us in a life better for knowing them!
I love my kids, my favorite color is blue, I'm a triplet (multiple) separated by my conjoined, identical twin at birth in more ways than one! Want to find out more? Well don't miss out on our blog! I'm the author of our serial blog episodes, as well as a featured personna in most of our podcasts, radio shows, and other digital media!
Haydyn Allan Lee
My Clubfoot Baby
A.k.a Haydyn-pants/Haydyn Bug/HAL
Haydyn was born 02/10/2021 at 9:11 pm after arriving to the hospital at 4 am that morning. Due to complications, one murderous nurse, and an absentee husband, Haydyn's first day on earth (and his next few years) was tainted by heartache and pain, but his clubfoot was the least of our worries thanks to his Shriner's Care Team. My son began as a patient at Shriner's Hospitals for Crippled Children only 12 days after he was born. We missed his jelly bean toesies stage, but we learned a great deal from it! Haydyn is, now, anything but "crippled"; however, his journey has only just begun!
He is, definitely, our cutest of family members!
Travis Gipson
Ex-Husband and Haydyn's Father
As my ex-husband refuses to answer me, on anything, due to his own ego and massively oversized sense of self import, I cannot include a picture of him at this time, nor can I give any more of an introduction as it would be unfair of me to do so. I am anything but an unbias party in the situation, and considering he kidnapped my child, had me physically assaulted (after assaulting me himself), stole my vehicle AND doesn't think he's done anything wrong I can do now more than say "Narcissist" until which time he pops his head out of his ass. Sorry, not sorry.
