Life's way of changing your plans

Isn't the path of life an amazing thing?

Last night or should I say this morning at about 2:00am as I sat on the lounge feeding Lily, I spied a photo of Cameron and I from the night we got together sitting on the bookcase.

It brought a flood of memories rushing back. One that gave me a giggle were some words from an early relationship chat we had.
I told Cameron two things, one that I didn't want children, and the other that I was going overseas to further my career and there was nothing he could do to stop me.

Well, well, well, where are we now!

I guess being with the right person makes all the difference. Prior to Cameron I had never met anybody that made me want to settle down, buy a house and have a family. As for the travelling overseas part, I do still want a career, however it will be worked around my number one focus, Lily.

I know for certain that I will definetly not be moving overseas to work, maybe for a holiday, but certainly not to move.
I for one could not be seperated from my family, in particular my Mum for any length of time, and I do not wish to move Lily away from her family either.

One thing I do know, the girl that I was at the time that I met Cameron, is now a young woman with a completely different set of goals, that I would never have imagined back then. If i'd of met me now at that time, I would not know me!

Amazing how life changes ... I never thought I'd be step mum to 3 boys at 19 ~ but wouldn't have changed it for the world.

Little Miss Lily is gorgeous (loving the facebook pics)
