i have one daughter unplanned... at 9 months of age i told her mom to leave/getout, she did, and here we are 6yrs later wow, what a trip being a single parent is extra hard work,more sacrifices etc, but the payoff is amazing. i will admit to wanting the world to stop every now and again just so i can get off for a bit. would`nt know what to do if it did.. happy christmas -
