    <content type="html">I always knew this day would come.&amp;nbsp; Today.&amp;nbsp; The day when I am no longer that someone special, but just another girl of his past.&amp;nbsp; I always knew this day would come, but I didn't know how I would take it.&amp;nbsp; I still don't know how I'm taking it.&amp;nbsp; I'm not great at dianosing myself, but if I took a stab at it I would put myself at disbelief.&amp;nbsp; I feel as though it hasn't officially hit me yet.&amp;nbsp; I feel as though I'm still awaiting one last disappointment, another dire need to be crushed, crumpled, and walked on.&amp;nbsp; I guess I'll just have to see.</content>

    <title>Dream: my baby</title>

    <content type="html">&lt;span style="font-size: small"&gt;&amp;nbsp;Last night.&amp;nbsp; Well technically not last night, but the night before I had a crazy dream.&amp;nbsp; I usually have one of these about once a month.&amp;nbsp; This time I dreamt that I was a mother.&amp;nbsp; I was sitting on a couch and there was a baby next to me.&amp;nbsp; I am a Jamaican American or otherwise consider myself to be a black americanm, but my baby was I guess, half indian.&amp;nbsp; My daughter was absolutely beautiful.&amp;nbsp; I have always planned on naming my first child Noelle whether it be a boy or a girl, but now a part of me thinks that that name will due no justice to the beauty of my first child.&amp;nbsp; Anywho on with the story.....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I looked next to me and she was sitting in a baby car seat and next to her was paper work stating that I was the mother.&amp;nbsp; For some reason I didn't doubt for one second whether she was my child or not.&amp;nbsp; The moment I looked at her I KNEW it was correct.&amp;nbsp; I picked her up and suddenly I understood how it felt to be a mother.&amp;nbsp; I felt a sudden rush of maternal instincts that I had never possessed before.&amp;nbsp; Then it dawned on me that I had absolutely no recollection of being pregnent nor giving birth to my child.&amp;nbsp; But for some strange reason I didn't care! I just wanted to love my baby.&amp;nbsp; The child in my arms was aproximately 3 months old, and I couldn't remember when the last time she was given a bath so I began to go through her baby bag strategically placed on the couch as well and decided to bath and clothe her.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I soon began to wonder who my baby's father was.&amp;nbsp; I've only had one boyfriend for the past 3 years now and he definately was not indian and could not be the father of my child, but that didn't matter to me.&amp;nbsp; I knew that as long as my child had me she would be completely safe and satisfied with the life I would provide for her.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I finally awoke a strange feeling of worry bumrushed my mind.&amp;nbsp; I woke up looking for my baby only to soon realize it was merely a dream.&amp;nbsp; And the astonishing thing about it is...I&amp;nbsp;was disappointed.&amp;nbsp; I seriously woke up longing for my baby, I missed the warmth and comfort we exchanged during my dream and longed for it back.&amp;nbsp; I immediately felt my stomach even though I knew there is no chance I am pregnent.&amp;nbsp; A junior in college should be happy not being pregnent but suddenly I wanted a baby.&amp;nbsp; But not just any baby, I wanted the baby from my dream I perfect baby.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well I came to my senses moments after awaking and don't want a child this moment anymore, but one things for sure.&amp;nbsp; There is no way in hell I could ever support abortion now.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; I would rather damned my child's father to hell before I think of taking the life of such an innocent, defensive child.&amp;nbsp; I don't have any kids now and I'm glad that I don't, but when I do Lord help me if anything goes wrong, because I'm willing to do whatever it takes to keep my child happy and healthy.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;lj-embed id="2" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;</content>
