Meet Kila my 4 month old baby girl. She is beautiful, sweet, and spoiled like no other! Kila was born March 15th, 2010. Her daddy and I had been married almost 2 years when we had her and she is the center of our world. Every day is an adventure with Kila.
My husband, Glenn and I have no prior experience with babies in fact Kila is the first newborn baby that we have ever even held! So needless to say this has definitely been a new experience with plenty of mistakes so far. We were always the people that said we were never going to have children because we didnt like babies hahaha well as you can see that didn't hold up very long!
Having a baby has been the best thing that has ever happened to me and I love her more then words can describe. Although, I am not recommending everyone my age run out there and get pregnant because everyone is different but there is definitely a lot of benefits to having a baby young when its the right time.
I know there are a lot of people who think that having a baby young is a mistake and you should enjoy the time you have to yourself while you can because once you decide to bring a baby into this world you will have to think of him/her first for the rest of his/her life. I know people have made comments that being older is way better then being my age (20 years old) and that I would have been better off to wait until I'm a few years older.
Let me ask you something though....how is it that I was too young when I am married, Glenn has a great job being in the military which allows me to be a stay at home mom and still afford anything and everything we want for Kila, we have a plan for her college already, I don't party or drink, we have amazing insurance that doesn't require us to pay a penny for medical costs, and we live in an 1800 sq ft house with 3 bedrooms and a huge backyard which has plenty of room for my little angel. Kila comes first in our lives period. So how is that too young?
On the other hand a baby is a lot of work and stressful so if your not ready to dedicate your entire being to something else then I strongly recommend waiting because a baby will test every nerve in your body (well actually I think my husband tested my nerves when Kila was first born more then Kila! lol)
I feel so bad for the children who have young moms who only think about partying and hanging out with their friend or impressing the boys. That is when someone my age is too young and immature to have a child. I don't understand how they can just expose their children to that or leave them behind while they go party with their friends. I'm not saying that they shouldn't have any friends but I think they should be careful of the company they keep. A lesson that could very easily be learned the hard way.
Anyways, the moral of the story is before anyone says stuff to girls about their ages and when they decide to have babies, maybe they should think about how everyone is different and just because they weren't ready at the age of 20 to have a baby doesn't automatically mean everyone else shouldn't be ready either.
Thanks for reading and God Bless =)
