What do you want to know about us? Every time I sit down to write a blog post, I question myself on what does a perspective birth mom or first mom or dad want to know about us. I question should I update our website with new information or is this blog enough to share how we have grown and changed? Social Media makes it possible for everyone to seem happy all of the time and people can come across as rather fake. I don't want that, I love my life...all that is missing is being a mom, but that doesn't mean everything is perfection. Bubba and I disagree over who should clean this or that, why are we going there but not seeing my family too, or why are you dragging me to this. Our relationship is definitely a push and shove; we just try to work hard at making it work for us. Relationships ebb and flow. I don't know how many times Bubba has heard me say "I love you, but I don't really like you right now!"
So, I struggle. If parenting your child isn't right for you, for any reason, what would you want to know about us that would lead you to considering us becoming your child's parents. We know that our life is going to change when we become parents. We plan on fewer trips back to Nebraska, we plan on making our child first to us, we plan on doing what is best for our child. But we will still be us...family, faith, friends, & our careers are our core values. We know that without them we wouldn't be who we are, I know if I didn't have my students everyday I wouldn't be anywhere near the adult that I am. I plan on still being a prom chaperone, I plan on also taking our kids to the zoo every year, I plan on our child knowing how much he or she and his first parents are loved by us.
