be a parent

I’ve always loved kids myself having done babysitting for younger relatives when I was younger, and having to play surrogate father to a young boy and girl in 2000 when I lived with their mother because their dad was incapable of taking care of them.

Though I would dearly love to have kids of my own and raise them the way that I wished I could have been raised (not that I’m saying I had bad or dysfunctional parents).

And in my case, they most definitely won’t. Because of the health issues that I’ve had to deal with these last six months, I’m pretty much guaranteed that I won’t get to physically have kids, unless I go through reeeeediculous and drastic measures.

However….

There are lots and lots of babies who need moms. And I’m pretty sure that it will work out just the way God wants it to.

This one isn’t likely to happen, but it’s nice to dream about.

wow. I’m afraid to want this as much as I do.

you see the world in a new way through the eyes of kids. They are so funny, and I like who I am when I am around them.
