Is deciding to be a mom a crazy idea?

It wasn't until i was around 20 that I knew I wanted to be a mom and man was I ever itching. But with better judgement on my side, I decided to put this adventure off. I spent the early part of my twenties travelling and learning to snowboard, hanging out with friends, dating, working a party job and generally having a good time. When i was 23 I met my (now) husband and knew instantly that he was the one. But just because he was the one didn't mean kids were in the near future. We still had some living to do before we crossed that bridge.

Fast Forward 5 years to the day (literally) and we were exactly a month away from expecting our first bundle of joy. Each at the age of 28 and only newlyweds for about 4 months. (yes if you do the math, we mixed things up). Where we ready? I thought so! Did we know what to expect? Not at all! Do we regret it? Absolutely not!

So what brings me to this blog you ask? My co-worker who at the age of 28 is still 'living' and while she may be itching for the babies that all her friends seem to be having, I am thinking is the grass really greener on the other side. While I love my daughter and unborn son with every fibre of my being, I also long to move to another country for a while, go back to school, sleep in on a Saturday, be accountable to noone. So I ask, is deciding to be a mom a crazy idea? The answer is Yes but not how you may think. Its crazy like skydiving or bungee jumping, its a crazy adventure that in the end is so worth every second of the fear and pain you experience.

Welcome to the blog of a working mom of 2. You decide if this is still what you want to do!
