Ur not crazy! We all go through that
stage of "i wish I could have done
this..." and stuff like that. U did have
many goals u wished to accomplish before
but u've succeeded in startin a family and
having a wonderful relationship with
boyfriend and son! Many teenagers today
dont even know what they want to do and
some even end up going nowher in life,
drinkin and partying and doin that weekend
after weekend... But ur a dedicated mom
with dreams u stil hold onto which is
great!!!! So keep thinkin about goals u
wish to accomplsih, try not to think of
having not yet accomplished them... But
think of puttin some time on it to help
raise ur son to be the wondeful man that
hes going to be!!

Hun
youre not selfish for wanting those
things! Everyone dreams big, thats what
keeps us going in life. You were put into
a situation far different from what you
ever expected and its good to know that
you still want the same things in life,
that you're still willing to work just as
hard for them now as you were going to
before you were faced with minor obstibles
(thats not intended in a bad way towards
your son..I hope you dont take it in that
way) the only thing you can do is keep
trying to follow through on your dreams.
Go to beauty school now or 10 years from
now, whenever the time is right for you,
and finish what you started. You'll feel
more rewarded in the end. I hope this
makes sense. Heh.

You are not crazy at all! You are
wonderful for still wanting to accomplish
things! I have so many friends with kids
who have just gone stale. Have no drive
to do anything with their lives..... You
have to keep moving on and do all the
things you hope to do. Only this time you
don't do it alone. You have river and
raven to go along as support for you.
Hold fast to those dreams or they will
fade....

accomplish them its just going to take
longer...I was going to go bck to
highschool, but I talked to my counselor
and she told me to take my ged, its the
same and I can spend ore time with
jaydyn..Im going to take it once she gets
here and im going to get a job and start
saving up to go to technical college..I
can get a grant to go for free I think,
but I still need money...Save up for a
car, and pay for me and jaydyn..Thank god
when me and my mom move out in august I
dont have to pay any bills except for what
I want...I want to major in
buisness/finace and become a financial
planner or one of those ladies that has
the biggest desk at the bank! Lol~....It
will all come in due time....Dont give
up....

I agree with jordan. All of us are going
to accomplish our goals, it will just take
us a little longer. Look at jennifer she
has 3 kids, and is the "owner??" of an
insurance company. We can all do it. And
you arent being selfish, you are just
being concerned because you are unsure of
were everything is standing right now.
You told me I wasnt selfish and honey your
arent either.. I love you.. I will get
your out of there I promise!!

I feel the exact same way. I don't think
it's selfish at all. We're all intitled
to our own hopes and dreams .
