Promise myself that I will be a wonderful wife and mother someday

About this goal, I know that I will be a wonderful wife and mother. The mother part is quickly approaching as I am now seven months pregnant with a son, Lincoln Avery. I am so proud and happy to be given the chance to be mommy again, after losing my Anniliese in November of 2007.

I have always been a good girlfriend, friend, even acquaintance. So why on earth would I not be a good wife and mother? haha, silly me. I know this is a given, and I am ready for the challenge.

Though I know this is a far off goal, I want to keep reminding myself to look at the qualities inside me and make sure I have what it takes to raise a family. I think I do, I have to look at my parents and remember what not to do, those I have down pat.

Though I do not know my children yet, I want them to know that even years before they exist…I am trying my hardest to keep my body healthy and my mind clear so that when they do come to me, I will be willing and ready in all areas. Since they will grow inside me, I have to keep the little nest that is I, as clean and cozy as possible. That means only healthy food and good weight managment and plenty of water and juice. Since I am highly educated in child preparation I know that I am on the right track.

I am not only doing all this for my kids, but for myself and my future husband as well. My making sure I am healthy and safe will help in the long run when I finally have a family. I know it’s weird…but though I don’t know them…I already love them.
