      ha!

      i think we all forget childbirth is natural. we've been doing it for a long time...

      but i was that chick that never thought about marriage or kids. and thought i had this life thing figured out. so during labor i had a brief moment when i thought "wait. i'm not ready!" but, 3 pushes away from bringing a life into the world was too late. i couldn't push him back in - because at that moment, i may have :)

      i loved being prego! the thought of something growing in me creeped me out for a bit but i got over it.

      i won't lie. it hurt (like a 10+), but i like to think it hurt because i was induced and couldn't walk around... but pain isn't something you think about, during the making of the baby or the raising of the child :) you know it hurts like hell, but you forget. kinda like arizona summers!

      you'll know when it's time. just enjoy the ride and pray for a healthy pregnancy and healthy child.

      hmmm, no fave experience. just some very memorable one's. (even a couple of not too pleasant one's that taught me life lessons)

      most memorable was right in the middle of labor with my son...that no turning back point. because it made me realize that i'm not in control - that there is something bigger and to never take anything for granted.

      my fave movie is "breakfast at tiffany's"

      my fave book is "who moved my cheese?" - many think it sucks, but it's an easy read and great for 'oh, woe is me' kind of people. you know the Eeyore's of the world...?

      and most memorable lesson is understanding that it's ALL about the journey. not the beginning. not the end. understanding 'that' forces me to live each day like it's my last. work hard, play hard and love (hard) in between. and life got better.

      no, not one defining moment but several.

      i've always been a free-spirited type of girl. but about 3 years ago, after my divorce, i was devastated. then i watched my mother get laid off after working for a company for 25+ years struggle to find work.

      i realized life is shor and that nothing is promised. i was determined to find myself again and do all i could to be an example to my son (in life lessons and working for self). long story short, i moved 3k miles away from family and friends and didn't know a soul. it was the best thing i could have ever done!
