Five Years Ago ....

This year was my third Mother's day being a mom , and i really can't believe it .... 5 years ago if you would have told me that in five years i'd have two girls, be a stay-at-home mom and be gettting ready for a wedding I really would have rolled on the floor laughing. Five years ago this month , I had just met Josh and we had begun seeing each other on occasion, We were both getting ready to graduate highschool. Me , extremely excited to move out on my own and go to university and Josh beginning his career in electrical work.



Boy, did my plans change .....I had planned to go to university for a few years until I was old enough to apply for the RCMP ( I went to university at the ripe age of 17 ) . After one year of university i realized i was wasting my money and not getting any further ahead , so i decided not to go back and to just work full- time to get ahead , until I could apply for police school. Me and josh were together for two years when we decided to move in together in an itsy bitsy apartment in the middle of harvey , while i worked at the restaurant right beside our building. A funny tidbit : our rent was 275 $ haha Anywho after awhile he had moved into fredericton to be close to my new job and a year later one thing led to another and we were pregnant.



I still dream of going to police school , never really knowing how or when it would ever be possible . I Love being a mom to our children and never regret anything that's happened , but on the random day I think to myself what would have happened if i had applied and gotten into the rcmp academy ... what would my life be like ? Would me and josh still be together ? Where would we live ? etc ...




I will go back to school someday , not sure what for , but right now i'm content to stay home and be with my children during their younger years. So this Mother's day I'm Happy I got to share the day with my family and look back on what got me to this wonderful day. Happy Mother's Day to everyone and Hope you had as nice a day as I did.
