How would she cope at school? what would life be like for her when she was grown up? How would things be when her mother & I were no longer there for her? And so on.<BR/><BR/>The future was a scary place because it was so unknown.<BR/><BR/>And yet, as each of the major decision points has come and gone, we've coped, and they've rarely been as bad as we feared.<BR/><BR/>In the end the future will largely take care of itself, and you will be better informed by the time you have to make such decisions.<BR/><BR/>Right now, your son is a baby and has all the needs that any baby has. He needs to be fed, cuddled and loved. <BR/><BR/>You can deal with the rest as and when you need to in the future, when you'll be better prepared. You don't have to make all those decisions now.<BR/><BR/>All you need to be now, is a Father and husband. <BR/><BR/>And you know how to do that :)Kim Ayreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02656677501116622953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24264973.post-80311651859260350952007-09-14T13:16:00.000-05:002007-09-14T13:16:00.000-05:00I am so glad Ian is going home with you soon!
