Milestone Month.....
And with a blink of an eye, October is here being a milestone month for me as we will be celebrating Sophia's first birthday on the 24th and I'll be starting my PT job on the 28th....
Holy shit....
Literally, the last year has been an absolute blur, yet so eventful in a positive way as well as exhausting at times with a newborn but incredibly rewarding. I love being a mom to both my children doing my best to raise them (with help of course) with fingers crossed that they grow up to be happy and successful. No doubt, they'll make mistakes along the way as we all do but I'll always be there to support them and try not to be judgemental as my mom was with me.
I went from the 'girl next door' type in high school to being the 'girl your mom warned you about' in university with somehow the latter attracting guys (and girls) more than the former. My parents (especially mom) had a hard time dealing with my 'makeover' when it came to my wardrobe and detested that I had started smoking cigarettes.
If they only knew how I was supporting myself financially, they would have cut me off.....
Yet, I was perfectly fine and comfortable in my own skin finding myself having the time of my life balancing school, work and partying.
Truth be told, I would not change any of that.....no regrets, and just amazing memories.
I'd like to think that both my children will be able to talk to me about anything and being a parent I'll try to do my best to be more open than mine were with me. Scary part is, sometimes I think I'm turning into my mom catching myself acting in a certain manner, or various phrases/words all the while muttering 'fuck' in complete awareness of what had just happened.
Literally, the worst thing a guy can say to his girl is that she's turning into her mom...lol
Then again, I'd like to think that I've inherited the good stuff and not the bad.....
Ciao......
