What My Dream Taught Me

Have you ever had a nightmare that you can’t wake up from? Well, I had one last night. I should preface this dream and explain my unhealthy obsession with babies. I can’t wait to have my own kids and dress them up in Alabama cheerleading and football outfits. I didn’t come to college to find my MRS degree, but I do want to be able to work and balance a family. Well last night I had a nightmare that I was pregnant with my second child. I was so distraught that I was missing the football game, no one would want to date me, and that people thought I was too young to have a child ( especially my second). In my dream I considered giving my baby up for adoption because I was not ready to have kids. I woke up and a light bulb went off in my head; I don’t need to rush to have a family. Although  I am excited to have a family of my own there are so many things that I want to do before I settle down. I want to have a successful career and a life of my own before I sacrifice my entire life. Lesson learned… Don’t watch Teen Mom before going to sleep.
This movie trailer explains my fears and realizations.
