Walking in regret

Hi Ladies, 

You ever have moments that you regret it all? You just do not know how you got to this point. How in the world did I end up pregnant? What happened?  "I was so happy before all of this"!! Is this you? It was me.

You see its so funny that now I am able to see how great of a your lady I was before I got pregnant. I was unable to also see how  easy I actually had it. I did not see the value in being able to just get out of bed and go straight in the shower, put on some clothes and go to school.  I did not see the value of just leaving my house with my purse that was just filled with a wallet and lip gloss.  I did not see the value of my mother handing me my lunch money.I did not see the value in going out to dinner with friends and not having to worry about going straight home I did not see the value!

Now I have to get out of bed to calm a crying baby, I have to feed, clothe and do my daughters hair before I even think of looking in the mirror in the morning.I have to find someone to watch my daughter before I go out to dinner with any one, I have to pack a diaper bag, I have to budget my money enough to get through the week. Wooh..That is not even close to the amount of work that is being done before yourself

With all this extra work, it is so easy to feel regret. Especially if you are doing this alone. Can I tell you there is nothing for you to regret? You did nothing wrong. Forgive yourself.
