Damned if you DO! Damned if you DON"T!

I was 43 when my son-shine was born. People would always ask “when are you going to get married?”. “When are you going to have a baby?” Those questions played in my head and toyed with my emotions. When I turned 40 and I was still with out a husband and a child I made a promise to myself to live for ME I decided to check a few things off my bucket list first thing up complete a marathon. In 2012 I trained and qualified for the 2013 marathon. I was in the best shape of my life optimal health. I was loving ME Six week into 2013 my GYN informed me I was pregnant. ‘WHAT!” Totally not what I was expecting to hear.

After 40 a child was not something, I even thought was an option. Now the questions I was asked “Don’t you think that you are too old to have a child?” Aren’t you concerned with birth defects?”
DAMNED IF YOU DO DAMNED IF YOU DON’T.

Once again, I tuned out the voices and DID ME! My son was predicted to be born on my birthday, but he actually came a day late. The day after my birthday. Regardless he is my birthday twin. I had a great pregnancy no complications at all and my son was born healthy. He is truly the love of my life the best present I will ever receive. Thank you, Lord.

I write this today to those who get all the questions that I used to get. I tell you tune all the voices out DO YOU. Live your LIVE for YOU. BE HAPPY
