Baby Question......

On my way home from taking Colton to his swimming lesson, he asked, "Mom, can we pretend I have a baby brother and sister"....... This question has come up before, and I usually seem to "ignore" it, but for some reason it hit me hard. Colton has never had that "real family life", and I don't want him to grow up resenting me for it. Would I love to start over..........yes and no.......... Am I scared........definietly. If I do do it again, I want it to be "forever". I mean don't get me wrong, I love my son, I love that I have been his rock and raised him for the past 5+ years, and I wouldn't change being his "only parent" for the world. But sometimes the guilt gets to me. Maybe I am just having an emotional, depressing day.

  1. Lisa, I am glad you are aware of your feelings. It can be hard to sort through those thoughts and prepare yourself for the future. I think you are a great mom and you will always be, single or with someone. I will keep you in my prayers. Take care, Lacey

  2. You are a great mom and dont forget that, I think that if it is meant to be then you will have another child but if it isnt then you cant feel guilty forever! Let things happen and it will all turn out ok.
