baby baby

Being a woman and unmarried...there is a lot of pressure.

Pressure...to get married and have babies.

Last week in my Marriage & Sexuality class, the professor posed the question:

Does not being a mother make a female feel less of a woman?


Wow! It was a hot topic in class. Every female in the class jumped at the question.

I wouldn't say that I feel like less of a woman, but I do feel like my life is not quite complete yet.

Many women long to experience motherhood.

There is just something so special about becoming a mother for women.

Every week it seems like friends and family members are announcing they're expecting, trying or just had a baby.

I am sincerely happy for them.

At some point though, you begin to feel like the kid who's going to be picked last for kickball.

I know God has a plan for me.

I am extremely grateful for everything in my life now...a great job, graduate school, and people who love me.
