I had been a single, childless person until I was 26. And then I became pregnant. Life was never the same after I had my first baby.
For me, the moment that my life changed happened when I saw my baby for the first time. Before I had children, I wasn’t sure if I would have that feeling of unconditional love for another person. I also wasn’t sure if I could handle all of the responsibility that comes with children. Children had not been in my social circle. None of my friends had babies at the time. I mostly saw kids from a comfortable distance at the grocery store. I liked those comfortable distances. No one was more surprised than I was that I was going to have a child.
So my life changed forever twelve years ago, when I gave birth to my first daughter. She was so beautiful and perfect. Who wouldn’t fall in love with the most beautiful baby in the world? I am a better person because she came into my life.
