So what you drive a 10 year old car and live in a one-bedroom apartment and can barely make ends meet. Honey, I'm single, drive at 3 year old car, live in a one bedroom apartment and can barely make ends meet. But you know what makes us fabulous? We will be the best mothers ever. God gave us this blessing and we must embrace it. Oh for us to be so worthy of such a thing! I say to hell with the backlash. <BR/><BR/>Do you know how much people look at me with pity when I tell them that my child's father has not called in two weeks and may not call again? I feel like complete shyt. But you know what? When feel this little boy or little girl kick me (which he or she did just now) I'm reminded that I'm living for them and not him. <BR/><BR/>Do you girl and all will be well.Moniquehttp://momma2be.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8839129284985526376.post-13448597667116809902008-02-23T18:53:00.000-08:002008-02-23T18:53:00.000-08:00The only kind of parent you need to be is the one your kid needs. What you do or don't do or how you do ordon't do it is no ones business but yours and your childs.<BR/><BR/>I am happily partnered but beyond that, we do not fit the mold of a couple appropriately trying to conceive. My partner just quit her job to go back to freelancing. I work for an small NGO and earn crappy money. We have educational and credit card debt. We have no savings. We are decades from owning a house and the one we rent is small. There will be no nursery a la Juno.<BR/><BR/>We have cultural capital coming out our ears and because of that, our child will have the greatest privilege of experience and love and to me, that's the most important thing.<BR/><BR/>No matter how we parent, someone will find a way to disapprove. <BR/><BR/>You're dedication and passion is what ensures me that you are going to be a great mum. For sure. xoplumphttp://plump.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8839129284985526376.post-35323077082851540902008-02-23T10:35:00.000-08:002008-02-23T10:35:00.000-08:00Back on the FSH. Hopefully I can add my teacher-salaried, single-mother-by-choice, apartment-renting family to yours soon! And within walking distance from each other!

The other blogs always makes me feel kind of left out at one stage - just because the things you write about in this post. The person in the blog is (almost) always this person with a well paid job and a house and a big car and a spare room for the kid and a devoted partner and so on and so on.<BR/><BR/>I am so happy to finally be able to read aout something different from that! Thank you for a very interesting blog.Mhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18238552801600266627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8839129284985526376.post-30194944396918851302008-02-22T16:10:00.000-08:002008-02-22T16:10:00.000-08:00I hope so too!!R and Jhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02426570854375651629noreply@blogger.com
