Lets Get Honest Here
Current mood: satisfied
I am not going to say I am a perfect mom, or girlfriend or person. But I am going to say this: NOTHING about this is easy. I am INCREDIBLY lucky that I have wonderfull people in my life like J, and his parents and my parents. Without them I don't know what I would do. I have a new found respect for women that do this on there own, or worse, with men that need just as much attention as the baby...
I have so much to appreciate right now. My child has two parents that love him so much. So we what if we are a little green to this, we are doing our best, and I think it's pretty good. He has grandparents that think he is the greatest thing ever put on this earth (probably because he is).
I have to give most of the credit to J. We wouldn't be where we are if it wasn't for him. He has been a great boyfriend, as well as a fantastic father. I really hope that soon I can really show him how much I appreciate all he has done for us. I feel the same way about both of our parents! I don't know where I would be without the family that I have.
Sometimes I just can't believe that I am a mom! I don't know what powers that be were thinking. It's the scariest, most amazing thing I have ever done in my life. I don't know that I am really as ready as I thought I was, but when it comes down to it you really don't have a choice. I don't understand how people are out there with two or three kids at our age. Diffrent fathers, Diffrent mothers... It makes me sad that these people don't understand what a commitment a child is. That they are being trusted to be parents when they can't even mind themselves.
I love being a mom. They're are so many things I miss. I miss spending time with J, I miss my late nights out, I miss getting crazy with my girls, I miss sleeping in... hell I miss sleeping period! I miss laying around in bed with J all morning... But then when I am sitting with this amazing person on my lap, and he looks at me with those big blue eyes. Or when he is laying on his fathers chest sleeping or looking around.... It reminds me how worth all of this is... It may not be easy, but it is worth it.
