Oh I remember those quilt feelings quite well…..of being a single mom, having to work, missing school activities, sometimes feeling too tired to do much of anything. But both my children grew up to be loving, responsible people who I admire. All you can do is the best you can do. I have no doubt Rowan will grow up to be a wonderful, secure, loving woman, with a zest for life (that zest being evident right now.) And she’ll probably be a great writer like her mom : )

I know the feeling: I feel guilty for not having started on
the family earlier, and already feel sorry for my future children
who will have ‘oldish’ parents when they are graduating high
school. Thank God Raul is in such great shape, so he will still be
able to play sports with our future unborn teenage son when he’s
50ish and all the other dads are in their early 40′s. Crazy? Yeah,
I got it too, girl. Just try not to let it spoil your good time
now. I’m trying really hard not to become one of those 30ish women
obsessed with procreating, and just have faith that these
disobediant children waiting inside us will appear already!! Don’t
they know I’m getting old?

Don’t be subjectin’ yourself to no more ‘future guilt’, my friend! There’s awe for Rowan in everything she discovers! As great parents, she has the love and security to randomly experience awe in even the simplest activity! I’m writing from almost guiltless future (at least all that I’ve expunged)!

What a story! Our “Hesitant Housewife” has veered from funny domestic to eerily tension filled surprises! I was holding my breath from the moment the man noticed the ‘fluid-like …gelatin’ shadow’, & didn’t let it out again until he left the store! All characters had potential danger… even the chips and ” poisonous looking gelatinous candies” (surely she isn’t talking about my favorite gummi worms!). ‘loved all elements of this jam packed timeframe!
