I love football! It's been my favorite fall activity for years.
Today I went to see a professional game with a guy friend. During the game, the camera people put crowd shots on the Jumbotron. Toddlers and children cheering for the team kept making me smile.
I was thinking that next year I'd have a cute little one dressed in my team's colors. Or, maybe I'd need a babysitter because the noise would be too much for her. Or, maybe I wouldn't want to go to the games any longer.
As we were driving home after the game, my guy friend starts telling his dating stories. He says it's difficult to date a single mom because you never know if you're interfering. But, at the same time, you like the feeling of 'being dad.'
As I'm listening to him, I know I'm going to be a single mom. I wonder if I'll even have the desire to date because dating as a mom will be an entirely different situation.
I don't say anything to him. It feels a little too uncertain yet, and I know he'll try to talk me out of adopting.
As if anyone could talk me out of it at this point.
