Please Excuse Me While I Have a Soap Opera Episode
Oops. My aunt took me to task for a too hurriedly written paragraph in my last post:
"First, I don't think you 'slept around.' You made a mistake; a really short-lived mistake with a long consequence. For my sake, and yours and [hers], please re-think that sentence, 'get what you deserved.' Having a baby out of wedlock definitely was an error, but I don't think you should say it in that manner . . . I'm not criticizing, but it hurts me to hear it stated like that. Besides, if you're getting what you deserve, you must admit that parents that love you and back you up, a beautiful, smart, loving child and a good job with better prospects to come*, you must deserve a good deal because it is a good thing."
She's right. Instead of getting what I deserved (thank you, merciful God!), I got a beautiful little miracle instead. Thank goodness for wise family members who will keep me in check. Thank you, Auntie!
*Results not typical. We highly recommend that you not try this at home unless accompanied by a spouse.
