Eighteen years ago today, I had a beautiful baby girl. She was just perfect. A precious little bundle that simultaneously tugged on my heart and scared the crap out of me!! In that moment (after about 37 gruelling hours of labor) when you are handed your first little baby then sense of responsibility just hits you in the chest, “I am responsible for this little life” “this baby depends on me for everything” “is she really all mine” “how can she be so perfect” “how the hell am I ever going to do this” “what if I fuck it up” “I just can’t stop staring at this perfect little person, I could gaze at her forever” “I have absolutely no idea what I’m doing, but she is mine, MINE! and I will grow fangs and use them on anyone or anything that could possibly hurt her… Ummmm I wonder that includes me””I have no idea how to do this, she can’t really be completely dependent upon me, can she””Oh, God, what if I fuck this up””I can gaze at her for all of my days and come away happy””oh! Look at her perfect little toes and she has long fingers, just like me””what the hell is that black tar-like substance that is slowly oozing out of her butt…nurse…something is wrong with my baby!!!!!” “Awwww…look at the cute little grunty face she’s making while it comes out””you’re sure this is normal right””did I just say someone pooping is adorable” “oh, oh, she’s doing it again…awwww!””I could just hold this babe and gaze at her forever…”  “Isn’t she perfect” “Unconditional love… now I get it” “please Jenn, please Jenn, please Jenn don’t screw this up!!!!”

Willing to wear a happy birthday sticker on her forehead. Willing to spend her 18th birthday with her best friend, her mom, sister & brother. Willing to go to the lounge with her mom and dad & same friend and order her first, legal drink with us. We think we did a good job raising her…I don’t think we screwed up too badly anyway – lol! Learn from the first right…
