Parenthood

Parenthood

Physical attraction leading to a one night stand
After not using protection missing that first period
Raging that he lied and told you he couldn’t have kids
Engaging in a “relationship” that just weeks ago didn’t exist
Never thinking that being a mom is something you could do alone
Then he got the heck outta dodge and left you to do it on your own
Having no clue how to be a mom or what to do
Oddly you overcame those odds and birthed not one baby but two
Only one month after your first kid was born you took Dad back
Deciding that he deserved a chance too, its been 8 years he never left or turned back
