my babies daddy

lots of things in life come down to choices...
this is a soapbox of mine,
but I'm not actually going to get on that soapbox right now...lucky you!

I'm just going to talk about a choice I made at an incredibly young age that was one of the best choice I have made!

my babies daddy!

girls...
ladies...
women of the world...you have one of the most amazing choices in life...
you get to choose the father of your children....

you get to choose the one that will share half of your dna to create a 100% new human being!

this is a HUGE choice that so many take way too lightly...
that they don't even see as a choice...
they take a choice and turn it into a lustful action!
forgetting about the choice
not caring about the choice
not realizing that it IS a choice!

women...
ladies...
girls...
anytime you lay down next to a man (or boy) and share your body with him,
you are choosing...you are saying,
"he's the one!"
"this is the man that I choose to be a father!"
"this is the one that will love them"
"this is the one that will teach them what love is"
"he is the one that will die for them"
"He will provide for them"
"He will work for them"
"He will guide them"
"He will hold them"
"He will read to them"
"He will laugh with them"
"He will discipline them"
"He will color with them"
"He will teach them to ride a bike"
"He will cuddle with them"
"He will tuck them in at night"
"He will play video games with them"
"He will teach them their multiplication tables"
"He will teach them about respect"
"He will teach them how to follow God"
"He will teach them about money"
"He will love me as their mommy"

make sure that man is a man...
that he is the right choice...
this isn't JUST about love
this isn't JUST about lust
this is about children that have no choice...they can't choose their father,
you are the ONLY one that gets to make that choice!
Wow, what power we as women hold...
that is the ultimate in Women's Rights!

We are Women
We are Wives
We are daughters
We are girlfriends
We are Mothers
and We choose the Daddy!

I love my babies daddy...

yesterday...
just getting over a nasty head cold
he took our son on his first field trip of the year...
his first trip on a bus...
to the Pumpkin Patch...aka Hay Fever Central!...
my babies daddy was miserable...
he was NOT enjoying himself...
but he never once told the boy child...
the boy child had a blast because his Daddy was with him at school...
his daddy choose to spend the day with him...

today on my babies daddy's day off...
he is working in the girl child's classroom as Science Dad!
he is showing he loves her by spending his day off in a class room of 34 kids...

I may have been young when I married my babies daddy...

but this was one of the best choices I have ever made!
