I went through with it; Taylor's Story

On the 18th of August I found out that I was 4 weeks pregnant, after that I immediately told my parents.  My dad was angry and my mom was sad.  They hadn’t even met the guy I was dating yet.  He had an earring and I knew my father wouldn’t like him.  I thought my life was over.

After a few days, my parents calmed down and wanted to meet my boyfriend, Joe.  Joe and I met at university and lived in separate towns.  We made arrangements for him to come to my parents' house for a weekend visit.  I was very nervous about his arrival, I was certain that it would be the most awkward weekend ever.

When Joe arrived, I was so surprised by how kind my parents were to him. My father and Joe found that they had a mutual obsession with hunting and the outdoors. The two of them spent most of the weekend in my dad’s garage talking about their hunting adventures.  I discovered that a new life was about to begin for Joe and I.

Joe began spending more and more time visiting my family and me. One month before our son was born, Joe and I got married.  My father helped Joe find a job and my mother helped me find and decorate our new little home. I am currently working on finishing college and I know that there is a bright future ahead for our new family.
