Hello readers!
Today i would like to talk about datcare. And how it is not fit for a child under two to attend.
Unfortunately, the only way Courtnee can pull off finishing high school, is if Clara attends the daycare at the school Courtnee is enrolled at.
It makes me mad that we have to have some stranger who i have never met watch my baby girl six hours evryday week day. Usually when my mom is off work she watches her one of those days so she isnt at a daycare everyday of the week.
Another reason why i do not like this daycare is that Clara has been sick alot lately. And the number one suspect, the daycare. And every day it seems, Courtnee comes home and says theres a new baby at the daycare. Honestly, how many babies can these people manage? Are they really paying attention to my baby girl's specail needs? I dont know.
I guess im just a parent.
Tune in on Saturday when i give you more insight on being a teen father.

Normal Teenagers
Hello Readers!
I dont know if i ahve told you this yet, but i have decided to update the blog every Monday,Thursday, and Saturday. Sorry about all of the updates. I just want to make sure that i can get everything in.
Along with being teen parents, its still ok for Courtnee and i to make time for just the two of us. This weekend, we were fortunate enough to have some time to focus on our relationship and go and see a movie together. It also gives us a brake from the baby. I know what you are thinking, how could you say that? Its not that we dont love our baby and want to be with her, its just that we need a little break from everything. Every night for us is packed, and personal time for ourselves is very limited. Sometimes you just have to make time to be a normal teen.
Some other new news i would like to share is that Courtnee is seriously considering dropping out of school and getting her GED. At first, i was all for her to finish school and graduate. But, given that she doesnt get much time to get all of her school work finished on top of taking care of the baby and making sure she can take care of herself at the same time. I know what your thinking, where are you in all of this? Well, im right by her side the whole time. But, i also have a bunch of things, including school, that i have to make sure i get finished. Because the option of me dropping out is out of the picture.
Meet me back here on Thursday for another update.
See Ya!

The Beginning
Hello readers!
First, let me start off with telling you that i will now be posting Mondays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.
Now, i want to talk this time about how all of this came to be, and how nerve wrecking it was when we first found out we were going to be teen parents.
Well, to begin, you obviously know how it really began. As teenagers, we were curious and had alot of different feeling as our horomones were blazing at full speed. After the deed was done, of course we thought of the cons of the whole situation first. What if you get pregnant? That can never happen to us. Stuff like that. But no. We were wrong. Our worries had become reality. The feeling you first feel, when you come across the little pink plus sign, is regret. And then something really weird happens, you start to feel this feeling of acceptance against the whole situation. Then, when you go t tell your parents, every little bit of regret and fear and nervousness and hatred(towards yourself) come raining down upon you. In our situation, we waited till a friday evening to break the news. We waited three days so we could let ourselves soak in the whole situation. I mean common, its not everyday you find out your going to be a sixteen year old parent. I remeber that night like it was lastnight. We ordered pizza, and both of us were eating extra slow in hopes of slowing down what was about to be revealed. We finished our pizza cleaned up our mess and went to the living room to regain every drop of courage we had left. After awhile, i walked into the library(where my father was sitting) and stood there in front my father. He eventually said. "Whats u pal?".And i simply sgrugged my shoulers, the usual response of a sixteen year old. I stood there for awhile and then he asked. "Do you need something?" and i responded with. "No im not asking for anything at all". And by that point i think he knew what i wante to say, but he just wanted me to have the courage to say it mysef. He told me that everything was going to be alright. And then right then and there, i told him. His reaction was calm and slow. And i remember exactly what he said at that very moment. "Buddy, youve fucked your life u pretty bad, literally". As soon as he said that, i couldnt help not to laugh. But, i hid it enough to where he didnt notice.
From that, we ended up talking to both my mother and father for a good hour. After Courtnee got off the phone with her mom we regrouped with my parents. They went out to eat, and oddly enough, we got to go play lazer tag with our friends. So i guess the night ended pretty well.
