Whenever her birthday comes around, I can't help but remember what it was like finding out that I was pregnant with my first child. I was very happy, but I was also very nervous because I knew I had to tell my husband who was not my husband at the time and I didn't know how he was going to react. On top of that, I would have to tell my parents and I just knew my father would not approve because he had told me so many times not to have sex before I got married - and here I was, pregnant!
I won't lie to you all, if I could go back and do it over agian, I would have waited. I would not have had sex before getting married because it's a complication that you just don't need. And when you're taking part in something as wonderful as bringing a child into the world, you don't need the stigma that comes with being an unwed mother!
Nevertheless, here we are seven years later. My baby is not a baby anymore. She is growing up on me and there's nothing I can do to about it! I thank God for her, that she is so sweet and kind. She is beautiful, intelligent, and very loving. She makes me proud to be a mother and especially proud to be her mother. Though she is bigger now, she will always be my first baby!!!
