My Son Cayden
My son was born on April 14, 2008. He is a very pleasant boy, but being a single mom is definitely tough. I didn’t realize before having him that raising a child would be so difficult and time consuming. Babies really do change your life. Luckily I had him at 22 rather than 16. I honestly am not sure how girls at age 16 can do it on there own.
Besides the hard part about it, I love being a mom. He’s my pride and joy. I can’t imagine life without him. It’s really stop and made me think that life has its up and downs, but we don’t look at the simple things until we have children. Had I not had Cayden, my life may have not turned out as good as it has. Not saying that I was doing drugs or becoming an alcoholic, I just wasn’t hanging out with the right people and I did party a lot and I wasn’t going to college or doing much with my life. Now I’m going to Rasmussen College, working as a work study student there, and being a mom. It’s excellent. I am really enjoying life.
As far as the blog goes, I saw that you could get a free blog on iParenting.com and decided to try it out. In fact, for my Web Media Marketing class at Rasmussen we will be talking about blogs and so I’d have to get one anyway so I figured why not have one with a parenting website so I can share my experiences and ideas with other parents and vice versa. Blogs are not my area of expertise though. I’m not sure what I’m doing except that I write thoughts down kind of like a journal and get comments from other people on what I wrote. It sounds like a neat idea to me. So, until next time.
