OT - my craziness

don't forget Jewish guilt...

oy oy oy.

you can always tell a white lie...


my brother is gay
when my grandparents would ask him 'so nu? when are you getting married???"

he would look them square in the eye and say  "when I meet the right GIRL"


wasn't a lie... just not the whole truth

so if they ask     "so when are we getting grandchildren?"


you say  "soon... i'm working on it"

practice makes perfecct you know..........  just keep practicing.

LOL I will keep that line in mind.

I agree. You have to follow your heart and do what is right for both of you.

I'm with Nic and Tia:

It has to be right for you and Jeff.  You don't have to tell people that you have put off having a child, just that it didn't happen yet. 

I was never one that wanted to have children either at first.  I was abused as a child by my step-father and thought that I would not be a good parent.  I then met my husband who had an 8 yr old son at the time and took on the job of mother.  I decided that I wanted a child and wasn't able to conceive.  It was just about then than I was diagnosed with uterine cancer, so all ideas about being a "mother" were lost.  I still feel some emptiness in my heart, but have come to realize that it was not in God's plan for me.  My step-son, who is now 27 has blessed me with wonderful grandchildren and I have been part of their lives since their birth.

So I believe if it is meant to be for you that it will be.  Don't stress, you don't have to make that decision today.

Thanks Lisa! I am sure you were a wonderful step-mom :) I used to have fantasies asa  child of marrying somebody who already had children so I wouldn't have to brith one of my own lol

Sylvie:  I agree with everyone else:  If you are not sure don'ttry for now.
You are young and have time to make the right choice with your husband-
not everyone elses opinion.

Bringing a child into the world is a huge undertaking and should not
be taken lightly. 

I always imagined I would be married with children long before now- but
thats not the way God decided my life would be and I'm ok with that-
I am an awesome aunt to my 7 nieces and nephews.  The best part
is I can spoil them rotten then send them home. LOL

God Bless

Isn't that the best? I want my sister to get married and have babies so I can do that :) 

I don't know how I'll feel next year but right the thought terrifies me and makes me angry so I don't think that's the right time. Anger  + baby = not good lol

Anger + baby =

Good Morning Sylvie, I agree with everyone. This is you and hubbys choice and when  its right honey you will know. Dont have a baby for anyone but you and hubby been there did that. We thought hubbys dad was dying so we rushed to give him grandchild. Since he did not have any grandchildren and we wanted him to be happy. I have no regrets but I do wish we had more alone time before baby #1. Now grandad has lived with us for 19 years and will be here till the Lord above calls his name... You make the chioce and by no means are you any type of crazy....Heres a HUG for you ...Stand your ground...Take care of you and hubby....
