Homework Week 3 - Because I Can...

1. What was your biggest disappointment when you found out you were pregnant and how did you cope with it?

"I was young and had just put down a deposit on a flat , it was a crappy flat but it was going to be my first.. It took me months convincing my dad that I was a big girl when numbnuts aka arsef?k knocked me up and blew that fish out of the water for me..
...instead I got the pleasure of getting married to a guy I didn't know living a life I wasn't sure of.."

2. How have you managed, if you have, to retain the friendships of child-less friends?

"I don't have much problem with that since I tell people that my pumpkins are the neighbours kids who just tend to hang around alot cos I make nice food.."

3. Have you acknowledged the mistakes you have made in raising your child, to your child?

"Nope, never.. swore my family to secrecy and have threatened to shave off all their eyebrows while they sleep if they even so much as utter ..'when your mom was younger'.."

4. What is the best thing your kid's other parent has said about your parenting?

"You are a fantastic mom.."

5. What is the worst?

"My eldest got hurt once falling from the back of a bakkie and we had to rush him to hospital because he fell on his head.. he was only 8 months old at the time and I was supposed to be watching him..
My ex blamed me for this and told the hospital it was my fault and left me there.. they almost had me arrested for abuse until my doctor(who knew me and realised what was going on) came to my rescue and sorted the whole thing out.. I never forgave arsef?k for pulling that on me.. It was his way of teaching me a lesson.."
