This is never what I imagined for myself. High school was so much fun. I was out past curfew every night I drank, I smoked and I went home with his many girls as I could. I kept telling myself that life couldn't get any better than a girl in one hand and a light beer in the other. Then I got to college, Man, Was I wrong about high school being the best or what? I'm sure a lot of you out there remember in the same. It was parties all the time. They told me frat houses would be bad, but I had no idea. One day you're swearing. You'll never talk about initiation than next. You've drank so much that you don't even remember what you did to be initiated. The women, the alcohol, the parties It was outstanding. I lived So free girls, they came and went The nine months later I was at a party living my life and there was a baby in my arms. Out of nowhere. They're not there. And then, poof! There, there. We don't really plan on it. Sometimes for some of us, it just took us by surprise. Next thing we knew we were trying to figure out how diapers are supposed to work or what different kind of formulas mean. Sometimes you really want to take a break, but you know you can't whether we willingly signed up for it or not. It became our daily job to take care of our kids and nurture them without us. Who would teach them what's right and what's wrong were the sole reason they are who they are, No matter how many times they yell at us, our kick and scream and tell us they hate us. We love them. Regardless, we put everything we have into them. So how couldn't we love them unconditionally? Everything we ever onus there's and everything we are is theirs. We raised them so that they might be better. US is. You know, they depend on us, and one day we're gonna depend on them for some of you, you already do for a lot of things. Where would we be without our Children? Hall agree. Probably a lot richer, but in the end, a lot less happy and fulfilled. Our kids, os everything, but we owe them everything in return
