will I had a young lady email last night asking me how hard is my job, I do not want to disclose who this young lady is. When I wrote back I realized not only should she see what I have to say But Im sure their is a ton of other young ladies out their who would like to see what I have to say; so this is what I wrote her.
"will Im sure you have heard that you give up your youth and the parties etc etc, will thats only the quarter of it. It has it moments, love comes and many forms. you give up your body mind and soul until will I don't think their is a release date; I love what my mother says that their is no Manuel to being a parent. Theirs so much more included, having patience to get up and the middle of the night and take care of a poopy mess "not just the diaper" lol. and the days the kid is just not happy and their is nothing you can do to calm the baby; I use to cringe when i would see a toddler throw a fit and a store. Will It still phases me, but not at the same degree... I wish that I would have just stuck it threw with college "which I recommend before even thinking about making a baby" Believe me thinking about what you want to do with your life after the kid is out and you can barely afford new outfits for the season. It has its moments!!
Don't get me wrong being a parent is the best thing i have done with my life; kids are major gifts from god and I wouldn't pass up a chance if I found myself prego again. With the next one I want too be more prepared for myself. and not depend on someone else. my heart is with you no matter what you and your hunny decide to do, you can ask me anything I will tell you the truth". <3
add on: I also wanted to add that the feelings of being prego in going through pdd, will either make you ate brake you. Their is no way to predict if this job is really for you are, are if it will tear you down; I am not perfect I have my moments. "before I got prego I had an image of things were going to be and will lets say I have been unemployed for the past 2 years. I don't party often In I do not drink are smoke often thank god; But I do know others who had their moments before they knew they were prego. and some picked it back up, Getting prego doesn't resolve your issues and doesn't always change someone "thats up to them. <<33

As mommy helen said its hard to be a parent and alot goes with it. Every thing you do you have to think of them first beacuse its no longer about what you want its about what they want. they are a bundel of joy to watch them grow and learn new things and the felling of knowing that you are every thing to them but they can be a pain when they get sick or throw fits. If you decide to have a child prepare for it first by tlking to others with children and try to be financaly set other wise you find your self in a panic of what to do. sumtimes you have to sacrafice alot for them but its all worth it in the end.

ya I can't imagine not being a mommy, I have a 16 year old sis who is adventures for age and she ended up prego awhile back ago and from what she had seen me go through that scared her enough to realize what she was about to endeavor "she ended having a miscarriage" even if she wasn't a little mischievous teen.. I still don't recommend making that commitment at that age are anything under a certain age and even than Im huge example of what not to do.
I went through hell when she was just a infant she born via emergency c-section, her father and I broke it off when she was only 2 months old after having a emergency surgery from an ruptured appendix. It took a long time to respect and love myself and accept what I went through and move forward. Im not saying thats what everybody could go through But thats just a little bit of what I have and what I have to live with.

Being a parent is one thing but you have to be a friend and a parent at the same time.When they tell you things in trust you can't flip out about it because it you want to know what their doing.Gets real confusing sometimes and calls fro extreme patience.

It's the hardest job I've ever had and I'm still learning how to do it and hoping I don't mess up too much.
