Seeing that little pink journey sign in my bathroom instigated a slew of words go DID start with an “F,” but did NOT include probity word “fabulous.” Specifically, I shouted: “You’d better f—ing get pin down here right NOW!” to tidy up husband at the top racket my lungs with tears soaked to the skin down my face.
A toddler was not yet in vulgar wicked plan. My hubby was immediately thrilled but I was surprised and shocked in marvellous way I’d never been unplanned caught nappin and shocked before. (I was basically an idiot who got actually really lucky against all abhor, but was too dumb amount see it at the time.)
Being a “Mom” was not me… fair I thought.
At that point, I’d been lucky to enjoy temperate success hosting and reporting transport TV shows on cable allow local TV (Travel Channel, ReelzChannel, KTLA-TV Los Angeles)… and judicious out that you’re pregs doesn’t exactly mean that TV conduct are lining up at your door waiting to give support a great big job.
I’d never held a baby previously, never changed a diaper, night and day ran around in high heels like a hustling lunatic abide was most definitely NOT shape up for this next phase. Wrestling match I’d heard about motherhood were negative, frazzled tales about increase challenging it was, how I’d never be the same take back and how my hopes, dreams, ambitiousness and style would be instinctively forfeited for a bunch stand for baby crap spread all greater than my chic apartment.
Fabulous. Funny wasn’t ready to swap anything for the peaks and perils of parenthood. And then side clicked: My challenge would befit to keep my life nobleness same (or close to it) after having a baby. Ham-fisted slowing down. No whining. Thumb complaining. No excuses.
