I know a lot of people are blogging now... so many there are movies about it. But I guess I must be old, because I'm still unsure of why it's so vastly popular.
Here I am, though. This is my blog about what it's like to be a young mom. I drop my kids off everyday at their private school, and most days I try to get there early. Why? Because I am the only one who doesn't come in full make up, office attire, hair done (most of the time) and I'm only 24. The first day of school a mother there actually asked me if I was my son's babysitter and allowed to bring him in. Not only was it embarrassing, but it really ticked me off. Is that really anyone's business anyway? Just rude. The reason I don't come in scrubs or a pencil skirt and heels is because A- I chose to stay home and not work, and B- I don't care if I look pretty to take my son to school.
Now to present. It's January, and I'm still the only mom who doesn't get stopped to talk walking in and out of the school. I still have moms looking at me like I'm just the babysitter. I'll be honest... it bothers me.
It's not easy being younger mom. People look at you differently, you're not always taken seriously, and when you have more than one child- especaily a year or so apart- it can be all the more difficult.
