Soon To Be Mother My big sister, go-by and I were sitting in the living room one day in the spring. The room was white with flowers on the wall, and it smelled like BBQ from all of the cooking. We could talk about anything, we were so close. Gabby was telling me about her new boyfriend she had just met. She thought he was going to be the one for her, but I disagreed. I told her I was happy for her, but I thought she deserved better. I told her not to go after him, but she got upset and implied that I didn’t know what I was talking about. I never knew that after that I was going to become a mother. When I first found out that I was going to be a mother, it was March 9, 2013. That was on my little brother’s birthday. My sister Gabbey took me to the doctor in Rolling Fork, Mississippi. I told her my back still hurt me. When I got to the doctor’s office, the nurse made me take a pregnancy test. That was when the nurse named Patti, who had on white scrubs, came into the room and told me that I was going to be a mother. When Patti told me …show more content…
However, I am so happy that that mistake did happen. Because I am a better person than I use to be. I change my life a whole lot to do better for me with my daughter. I do not want my daughter to the same thing I did when I was in high school. I want her to be better than me. Therefore, this goes for all young women out here and got a child or children in high school. Do not let people get to you because you have a child or children in high school. You can do the same thing they can do. You might be able to do it better. Having a child or children is a blessing. You will push yourself harder so you can make your child have a better life. I am not saying it 's going to be easy you going to have some difficult times. You just have to push yourself an always think about your child or children in that will make you strive for
When I was thirteen, my mother decided to better herself by going into college. She did not graduate from high school. She got her GED. My mother always wanted my sister and I to be something. She would always tell my sister and I not to follow in her footsteps because she knew it was not a good example. When my mother was in college for those four long years, I watched her struggle. With me being the oldest, she never wanted me to see her struggle. She was always stressed out and I knew from watching
My language is the way I choose to express myself. Though I sometimes feel I cannot express myself to certain people as I do to others. When it comes to language I have certain ways of speaking depending on whom I am speaking to. I have a different way of talking to my mother than I do my father and I have a specific way of talking to them as a pair. My mind also has a different way of speaking to them than my mouth. My language alters between the people I mainly communicate with. Language allows
Well, I give all my respect to my mother because of the not only impact, but the power this woman has had in my life since I was born. My mother has been here to uplift me when skies were grey for me, kept my head on straight when I felt like giving up in life, and she has made sure I was straight and had everything I needed even when she did not have a dollar to spend on herself. All because of my mother I had the knowledge on how to do right to become successful, I am in school, and I have always
MY MOTHER Has anyone ever asked you: “Who is most important to you”? To me the most wonderful mother in my life, no one can replace her in my heart. My mother, who is very nice and gentle, helps me and has always been there for me when I need her. My mother loves me very much. She is strict and educated me to become a good person. I can’t say how much love her. I am grateful to her because she gave me birth, brings me love and helped me grow up. But you know she just takes care of me a lot. Every
I am Jennifer Karina Vargas the daughter of Maria Rosa Solis Hernandez and Jauri Vargas. All my life I have lived with both my parents and my two younger brother which are Christian Vargas and Enrique Vargas. Being the first child, I have seen all the sacrifice my parents have done to keep our family untied and strong. Especially my mother because she is the one that is always aware of everything going on with us. For example, she is constantly reminding us about how important it is to take care

Personal Narrative Seed Folks The thought of being 16 and pregnancy has always weighted down on me growing up. I was scared of my family history trying my best not to repeat the life of my mother. In 2001 I was so happy I made it. I accomplish what no one in my family was able to accomplish. I finished high school and even enrolled in college. By this point I had already set a goal for myself. Right before the fall semester was starting my plan was put on hold due to my family, leaving our land
What I am Grateful for As a child, you have a lot to be grateful for. You’re grateful for your brand new shiny toys, for your silly little friends, and much for more childlike things. But, as you grow older, you begin to think of all the other wonderful, more sentimental aspects in your life that you should be grateful for. You no longer desire the childish objects that you once thought would fill your heart. Although there are many hated things in anyone's life, you should always show gratitude
out what it is. I never thought about what my identity was. I didn’t find my identity until I became a mother, my whole outlook on life changed. Growing up I didn’t have a relationship with my mother, so I didn’t have anyone to show me how to be a mother. I made a packed with myself to be a better mother then my own mother. Becoming a mother was the most important day, this was the day my identity shined through. I am proud to say I am his mother. Not having that bond with my mother gave me the strength
family of the world”. That “family” consists of a father, mother, and a child or children. These types of families are not as common as they used to be. Now, some families consists of a single parent and children, or even the legal guardian of the children could not be blood related to them. Children might not even live within driving distance to their biological parents. Before my parents were divorced, I was already being raised by my mother. My father was not present in my daily life. Once they
1041923 The first question that comes to my mind when faced with a moral dilemma is: “What would my father do?” For my entire life, I have looked up to my father and will probably continue to do so for the rest of my life. Many of my personal morals can be contributed back to the lessons and examples my father has provided consistently. The basis for the majority of values I hold is the idea of respecting everyone. Underneath this umbrella are honoring my word, being reliable, and never intentionally
literate than my mother. That is why she always helps me with my spelling when I am writing papers. I am a terrible speller and having ADHD doesn’t make it any better. As well as my mother, several other teachers have helped me along the way with both reading and writing. I have always had a hard time spelling words, even the little words like “children” or “something”. When I spell the word children I have to say it in my head a certain way, otherwise I will spell it wrong. My mother is excellent
“I have to go mija, it’s getting late”. As soon as I would hear those words that my mom would use to say, my eyes would get watery and would felt a lump in my throat. I knew that I had to be strong, but deep down I knew I needed my mother more than anything. Not having the woman that gave birth to me by my side every day, it made me grow up with a mind of an independent woman and made me capable of knowing how to manage stuff by myself. I come from a Mexican family where I grew up following Mexican
The Effects of My Mother on My Life Many people, as well as myself, believe that a mother’s influence is one of the most important influences that one will ever come in contact with in their lives. A mother’s love, comfort, and support will often help to shape a child and allow them to become the person they need to be later on in life. My mother has had a great influence on my life from day one. I often refer to her as my “rock” because she is definitely a solid foundation in my life. Being that

Laura is the daughter of Amanda and the older sister of Tom that is slightly impaired not only physically but mentally.
