Where would we be?

I'm still bewildered that I am actually a parent. I was at the Dr's the other day for Nico and on the sign in sheet it asked for your child's name...which I am sad to say I forgot (only for about 10 seconds) hey I am sleep deprived....and then it asked who the mother or father of the child was.....I wrote down my mom's name and then it hit me...I am Nico's mom! Truly amazing when you realize that you are responsible for another living, breathing person.

So today I asked myself where would I be without my parents...they never gave up on me (even when I gave them good reason too) they have walked by me through every painful experience and given me such great comfort...and they have been with me, loving me as I became a parent. My mom keeps saying, "I can't believe my baby has a baby! I just never allowed myself to see you as a parent because we just were so worried about you!" Really, now I understand completely.

Where would I be if I didn't have the parents God chose for me....I would be living a completely different life....full of chaos and pain. Love can change everything.

Okay, okay, I won't get mushy...but just remember to tell someone you love them today. It makes a world of difference.
