Today my son turned seven, and I turned 23. Yes, I had him on the day I turned 16. Many of the choices I made when I was a teenager were beyond foolish, and I still have my regrets. And even though I know I’ve grown, I sometimes I get worried that I’m bringing my son up wrong—that I’m somehow subconsciously passing my past foolishness on to him.
But today I took him to the park to celebrate our birthdays. 428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOStMaVCH9f
He played for two hours with a girl who has burn scars that cover most of her neck and face. 428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KNbM5mcg5
When my son took a break to eat a snack, 428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiB7DWQ7Dh
he pointed to her and said, 428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtHKf5NN2d
‘She’s really pretty and cool!’
Which left me thinking, 428Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1im7DHCTe5
‘I must be doing something right as a mom.’
