Although I may be way into games and cartoons (more than I should be) I am an adult. Somedays I still feel like I never quite grew up but I officially knew I was an adult when I had my first child.
She changed my perspective on life. As soon as I knew I was going to have her I looked at everything differently. I wanted to be healthier for her, wiser for her, make better decisions for her, "grow up" for her. I just wanted to be a completely different person. Like a "First Lady" one can say. Very stepford wifey.
For the first year of her life I was basically a robot. I wasn't doing what I loved to do, and what made me me because I thought that is what she needed.
I realized she didn't need this fake "perfect mom" figure I made up when she started developing likes and dislikes. She was bored. She just looked as if she wasn't enjoying life until I started introducing her to music and old games and crap that I liked. I noticed she didn't fall too far away from the tree sort to say. She just wanted to do the same things that I used to do not what the baby books told me a toddler likes!
So I officially became an adult when I realized I shouldn't change myself for anybody (not even my kids) because if someone really loves you they will love you "perfect" or not and everybody will just be way happier that way! <3
So this is my blog homework topic I choose to do this week. While writing this I noticed it gets a little personal but I like it and I hope you do too!!! Have a great Monday everybody!
