tiny human

Sometimes I cant catch a break. Do I envy Owen's "sperm donor" to be able to do whatever he wants to do whenever he wants to and not have to worry about a tiny human 24-7. Do I envy him because he will never have sleepless nights, and he will never worry about making sure Owen is fed and changed. He will never change a diaper in his life. I realize he should be the one who is envious. He should be the one who has regret because Watching Owen grow up is a miracle in itself. Being a parent means more to me then any career or title I could ever have. My son will always be my responsibility and no one else's. I would never force feed someone to be a dad. I would never want that. Sometimes we all make decisions. Sometimes they are great and sometimes they are stupid. Owen has been the greatest decision of my life. He's brought joy to my life in soo many ways that his "sperm donor" is honestly missing this huge chunk of his life that he will never get back. So for those of you who are raising your child with someone else, be thankful for them. Respect them. Cheerish them. And know that there are people out in the world doing it alone and doing it just fine.
