Ideal08,

I just had to post. Having babies before you are 30 is not all it's cracked up to be. I know from experience. Not that motherhood isn't DIVINE!!! It is, but it can DIVINE later in life, too.


I had my daughter when I was 24. I wanted to have her "younger", because I really wanted to be able to relate to the "kid" things that she would do. To this day, I love that part. I love chasing my daughter down the hallway, trying to tickle her. I love hiding behind a door and jumping out saying a loud "BOO!!".

However, there are down sides. Sometimes, I don't have the patience that I would like to have with her. I feel that this is a lack of maturity on my part (I believe that maturity is a process, not a goal. I'm maturing more everyday). Sometimes, I feel like I'm a little too "girlfriend-esque" with her...if you know what I'm saying. My daughter, my husband and I are learning about life together. It's one way to go, but who can say it's the right way, or the only way, or the best way.

Girl, enjoy your 20s, and when that baby comes, you'll know first hand exactly what I'm rmabling about (LOL).
