When I first heard about a star even for FCCLA I didn't have any clue on what I should do. Then I got to thinking and everyone always talks about the show teen mom. So I decided to become a "teen mom." I talked to my FCS teacher and got one of the babies. Zoey Rae Shiner is her name. As this project may have started out rocky because I had the sincer for baby #8 and I have baby #5. This made it hard to make her be quiet when she cried. Last night was my first night with her and she cried 78 mins. Not straight. What I want to get out of this project is how to learn to be a good mom and how much it will effect my life if I had a baby at this age.
You can get so much from this project, why you shouldn't have a baby so young, how much it will cost you to have a baby, and how much time you need to spent with your new baby. Me being in high school, have a job and want to go to basketball games, I have a lot on my plate. I am not in this alone. My best friends Abbi and Kaitlyn will be helping me and my mom will also be helping. She doesn't believe she's a grandma now, but she is.
Last night 11/11/10 was my first night with Zoey. I expected the worst and hoped for the best. Abbi was watching her while I was at work, and right as I left she started crying, I called Abbi about 3 times while she was with my baby. It is kinda weird. I am so used to having her, not having her made me miss her. She cried when I got home while my mom was watching her, again right as I left her. Its like she knows when I leave. After that she only cried 3 times. One at 11:30pm, 3:00am and 6:30. She didn't have to do much at 3am, but Mrs. Callahan said I wouldn't get much sleep, but I got more then enough. She is so good, and I think by the end of this, I will not want to turn her in, and I love kids, so I can't wait to have my own. <3
