Reproductive Time Clock

As women we have what’s called a ticking time bomb on our reproduction system. Mine is completely turned off I no longer feel the need to have children. It’s along those lines of been there done that and still raising my two. A few friends, acquaintances’ that I know are still trying to stay on top of that bomb called having children. Enjoy as much as life has to offer first so that the mistake of having them when you are not ready are made.

I look at my girls at times and I am amazed that I was given the opportunity to have them in my life. I wonder if I am messing them up for life at times it’s the hardest thing I have had to do in my life. I stumble a lot daily with being a good parent because there is so much I am still learning. Honestly I should have gotten to know myself better before having my oldest. Traveled more, get to know more people, dated more, and just enjoyed being me!

My new motto to friends who don’t have any children just enjoy yourself and do all the things that you dream of. Before you give your life up to children because that is what it is. Its no longer about you but about that person that you are blessed to have in your life. That need and expectation from your children at times may threaten to suffocate you. Your need end up on the back burner while theirs move to the front of your life. When the time is right I guess you will know and the sound of little feet will be heard.

Enjoy every minute that you have getting to know who you our. Travel to places that you have always wanted to go, eaten, drunk, partied, dated, and just spent time with yourself. Tune out that ticking time bomb that usually has the distinctive voice of your mother…Ooh Gosh it may also sound like your sweet grandma. Children are a joy that most likely best enjoyed once you our ready and not just your body. If you feel that children our not part of your life plan don’t feel bad our allow others to make you feel bad. It’s your life to enjoy any way that you want with or without children.
