keep looking forward. pretty soon you will have a little life in your hands and all that in the past wont matter. everything you do from now on will be for your child. its amazing how once you have a kid your priorities change and you don't care about what you have and get but more about what you can give to your child.

Yeah, I have already made that shift in my head a bit. I've noticed that I'm way more focused on growing roots somewhere, financial stuff, traditions. Whereas before, I was more focused on travel, adventure, and romance.

yup, but seriously right when they are born and they put the baby in your hands its like a switch gets turned on and all of a sudden it hits you, you will forever be called mommy no matter how old the baby gets, your mommy.

I actually love that idea of the permanancy of that. I probably, until now, have lived my life too transiently.
