suzyscloset asked: I loved your post about making love. But I have to give you another point of view. It's not always a choice we're making bringing up chioldren without their fathers. I was in a relationship for the third year and he suggested that we'd have a baby. I kinew I loved him and wanted to be with him for the rest of my life. But as it happens, when I actually got pregnant, he chickened out and left me. I kept the baby and have never regretted it. We don't see him at all. It was his choice, not mine.
I’m sorry that has happened to and to your baby. I know your child is blessed beyond measure to have you as Mommy. If I communicated any judgment in my post, it was unintentional. I know that there are many variables that lead to less than ideal situations. In that regard, it seems like the actions of your child’s daddy make my case that love is sadly lacking. The love you are showing your child, though, appears to be the evidence of what God wants us all to live out and show others. I commend you for walking the brave path of radical love for your child.
