Being a "Young" Bride

I was eighteen when I married my husband and he was 23 and in college. Yes, you can gasp if you want to. I have been with him for over four years and we have been married almost four years. We are getting ready to start our family, and we are glad we waited for four years. Because we know each other and I'm getting better at being a housewife. I love staying home full time. I meal plan now, and we stick to budget. If we have extra we get fruit on sale. I am super happy with my life and being married young, but it doesn't come without the questions.

Such as:
1. Did you graduate high school, was your marriage arranged?
2. Where did you two meet and were you pregnant?
3. Why did you get married so young, did you -have- to?
4. What is it like being married so young?
5. Are you sure you are ready to be married?
6. Did you know each other before you got married?
7. Did you have to rush into marriage?
8. Are you going to start a family soon?
9. Are you pregnant?

Those are just some of the questions that I get. And it sucks. It has let up because I've been married such a long time. But in the beginning I got asked all the time... The reasons I got married so young, and if I'm pregnant or anything of that nature is between my husband, me, and God. No body else.

Do we want kids? ABSOLUTELY! But it takes time for people to know each other. Am I happy we waited, yes! I am 22 years old and I have been married to the love of my life since I was 18. When I am 68 I can say I have been married 50 years. Not many can say that. My mother in law is 79 and she has been married for 63 years. Her mom and dad were married 57 years. In his family they are married a long time, in mine too.

For us we could be married 80 years. Marriage is WORK! But if it's hard, then you really aren't doing it right. I am so glad we didn't have the -stress- yes stress of having a child so early in marriage. Four years is a good year for us to start a family. And I cannot wait to be a family of three or maybe four. Baby dust if you will!

I am very much pro life and I am GLAD Trump spoke

When I watched my first March for Life in 2017 I was amazed at how calm they were and how much they love babies. I saw such opposition for abortion, and I agree because I am very pro life. I don't believe in abortions unless medically necessary. 

The next day there was the vagina march, yep I will NEVER call it a "woman's" march. Because women value their children. Women know that their body is not theirs as long as there is another body inside them. I know that I was born to be a mom, and I could NEVER abort a child made by my husband and I, or even one made in a rape.

I refused to watch this years Vagina march. I watched the March for Life but refused to watch the Vagina March. You can believe how you want but when you start rioting then enough is enough. When people can't believe the fair election of a president but forced us to for 8 years prior that's what I call a hypocrite. 

When someone tells me that they are pro life but says that its not their choice to make for another woman then they aren't truly pro life in my opinion. But I won't make anyone feel like they have to keep a baby.

That is my opinion. Take it or leave it.
