[quote=Anonymous]It's a huge decision and for most people, it's a decision that can never be reversed. No one is every ready to say "go" on a decision that will significantly impact every aspect of your life. No amount of babysitting can prepare you for being a parent. I was ready when the idea of the responsibility of being a parent no longer seemed overwhelming. When my feelings were more "okay, it will work out" and I knew I had the stability to create a family both emotionally and financially, I knew I was ready. However, on the night I brought my daughter home from the hospital I cried a lot. I was mourning my old life. I missed the freedom of being childless and not having any real responsibilities. That feeling lasted about a month. Now my kids are 10 and 8 and I can't imagine life without them.[/quote]
