Started college but the truth is I just want to be a stay at home mother & housewife.

There is so much time to become a mom, enjoy your kids, and not resent them for getting in the way of you living the young life you wanted - I see that stuff way too much.>

Well... see that's the thing, I don't really want "the young life." Ever since I was a kid I looked up to disney princesses and wanted that life, to be happily married and loving another person.

what's the real reason you need to have kids right now?> I guess it's not that I need to have them now... it's just that I feel like that's where I belong. I feel much more comfortable and happy around my boyfriend and thinking about the life that we are building together. Rather than trying to go out and meeting new people and going in social situations that make me uncomfortable.

If four years of working hard on something sounds like too much to handle, consider life at home, alone, with young children for as long as it takes for them all to start grade school. Being a mom is hard work>

That sounds like a blessing to me... honestly it's my biggest dream in life. Being a mom.... What I'm working towards now just isn't the same..
