First come Marriage, Then the baby!

So its true, as you get older you start to think about things that normally you wouldnt consider like getting married and having a family. Since I was 4 I told my dad I would never get married or have children. Well I got pregnant in *08, so much for that! However I've still never been married. Yes I've been proposed to by two different men in my lifetime, and obviously nothing materialized out of that. I've always been selective in the type of guys that I choose to date but I think now that Im looking for something long term, I just got even more selective. I dont necessarily mean to be BUT I want someone who's going to be here for the very long road a head.

I just finished talking to my lil brother Isaiah, and he told me he's sending a mother's day card since I want to be a mother. I actually had to laugh at that! I mean I do want the whole marriage, baby thing but Im not in a rush to get those things. I know they will come in due time and Im learning how to be patient. It just caught me off guard that my baby brother would send me something like that, maybe I have been talking about it more than I realized.

I think Im a lot more aware of the things I want to do and the place in my life I want to be. Especially if Im thinking of baby things and being a wife. Maybe its true as you get older you think of different things. I mean at one stage of my life I was thinking of proms and graduations and at another dating and partying, I figure Im just at the stage in my life where wedding bells and crumb snatchers (babies) just make the most sense.
