I've always wanted children. I don't remember a time when I didn't. I was lucky enough to find a husband that felt the same way that I do. I wish I could say that I had some noble reason for having children.
Earlier this year, I read my daughter's myspace page. She was very upset, but I'm glad I did because I was able to correct a misconception she had. I had my children very young. She thought that I had traded some grander life for a life with children. She felt that I pushed her to do her best because I didn't want her to make the same "mistake" I did.
My children are the most important part of my life, I wouldn't change a single thing, even if I was guarenteed these same children at a later date in my life. And now I'm waiting for grandchildren.
