I feel more distant as we get closer to the due date. I look forward to the little tykes and making them smile but what if they don't take to me? What if I DO turn out to be a horrible parent?
Not sure if I'm not ready to be a failure in other's eyes as I'm just getting over feeling like a failure in the eyes of the previous owners of my past. I feel more distant and anxious now that it's time to step it up and actually prepare for the day they will be here.
Deep down, I know it will all work out and I'm just worrying because it's my nature to worry. I know things always work out the way they are supposed to work out.
Bring it on.
You will be the most amazing mommy ever!!! It seems a different person tells me how awesome you will be every time it gets brought up (especially Aunt Lori)
ReplyDeleteI have never, ever doubted your ability to be a good parent. Like Dennis and I, you and Dawn are opposites, one being the worrier (you) and the other being the care-free "things will just work out" (me) in the relationship. The children will need both of you guys to balance things out.
ReplyDeleteThey will think you are amazing, as I do too.
Together, you and Dawn are going to do great. Just remember, it's not easy, but it will get easier! I love you sis!
