For once i agree.

As a young man i have all ways had big plans in my life to travel the world, build my own home and furnish it with the best made fittings and furnishings that i would make my self, but life has a habit of changing the course of what you think you would like to achieve so after finding out Laura was pregnant  well over 39 months ago and having to move into a family home that is rented it became apparent that my little dreams may have had a change of direction.
with friends and family all over the world who i would like to visit or work with it had all ways been a plan for when my little man become a little older that i would may be have the finance and time to travel and work around the world,and the plan kinda involved just me sounds very selfish and immature of me to do this with a young mum and child left at home fending for them selves and you would be right it,it is.

  but there is one thing i never thought of when Laura was pregnant is how attached i would become to this little cheeky boy, sounds strange to say that but something very primeval came over me as soon as Leo was born.. the need to protect him and the feelings of missing this little person when i have been away with.... now It has all ways been known that a certain mummy would all ways be wanting to add another addition to the family and i am not talking about another cat, which had been an issue with me as my plans of travelling and owning and building my own home dont have the room and finance for another addition to the family until conversation with the savvy other half over a few drinks led to an idea that could work,

being a young parent as i think i am has its benefits and all so its disadvantages the one benefit i have been told again and again is that having Leo at the age of 21 means when he turns 20 and hopefully becoming an interdependent man i will be at the age of 41 with my youth and fitness pretty much still there, with may be the added benefits of being in a much stronger financial position, and as Laura has put it to me why dont we give leo a brother or sister with in the next couple of years and by the time the pair of them are in there late teens or early 20s i will still be a man in his 40s and from what i have seen of my father being in yours 40s isnt a bad thing.
Allso a very quick witted person pointed out that it hasn't been difficult for me to which I agreed "yer it's been easier than I imagined" so why not?
 so with my self being stuborn and selfish, i believe a compromise, i can still manage part of a dream/joint dreams that would also secure a strong and secure family.
Life has a happy habit of of throwing curve balls how ever I am learning to catch those curves and embrace all of it!! 

Never look back with a negative few ... Just keep moving... Just keep moving and step Into the future happy with what you have achieved.
