BIG news!!!

guess what.
these two got engaged!!!


the wedding is this october.


i keep getting asked if i'm ok with it.
"they are so young" many say

i would like to share something with you all.

when i was 17 i got pregnant.
obviously i was young. i knew it just as well as everyone else did.
i made the decision to keep the baby and what i wanted most of all was for people to be happy for me. 
i knew i was young and i knew everyone's concerns, but it didn't change the fact that i was having a child.

so with that said,
i know that they are young. but i want them to love the experience of planning a wedding,
getting married and starting a new and important chapter of their lives.
and so i will love and support them. i am truly happy for them and i know that they will have a wonderful life
with all its ups & downs and i will always be here to support them both.

and with that,
i look forward to the next few months and all that i will get to share with you.

xoxo,

Very exciting news indeed! I married at 25 and had my first child at 28. I really wish I'd started sooner so I wouldn't be feeling so old now that the grandchildren are coming - I'd have more energy for them! Congrats
