Need to Vent
I was at the store a couple days ago and as I stood behind an older white woman in line, I over heard her talking with the cashier. They were talking about their children and how they did things "right". The older white woman's daughter got married and had her first child at 26 years old. She herself, had her first child at 30 years old. They continued talking about how their daughters and themselves did things "right". It made me a little upset. It is people like this woman that look down on me and my situation. I had Landin at a young age and I am not married. So therefore, I did things "wrong"? Well, I believe everything happens for a reason. For some reason God gave me my son at a young age. If I could do it all over again I wouldn't change a thing. He will get to enjoy his grandparents and GREAT grandparents far longer than other children. Landin will have young, educated parents there for him whenever he needs. I love him so much and can not imagine my life without him. If I had the guts, I would tell people like that older white woman that not everyone does things her way and they aren't wrong. I could have married Trevir right when I found out I was pregnant, but then everyone would have thought he was only marrying me because I got pregnant. When we get married I want people to know we are doing it because we love each other and want to spend the rest of our lives together. Landin will also know that his parents love him and they love each other. He will know that what his parents did in their situation was the RIGHT thing. He will know that he was a surprise gift! Look at this face and tell me we did things "wrong"!
