This is beautiful, Mandy- I'm not sure I have the guts to post the layout I'm thinking of for this challenge.....kudos to you, girl.  This is a wonderful page! I actually did the opposite....career-path, getting married this year, no children at 27....I often wonder if this was what I really wanted too. Rejoice in what you have.

What beautiful journalling...must have been hard to put that all down on paper... congrats on posting this, that must have been difficult too! I love the design of the page... the layering of the paper and the stamped title!
Wonderful LO... TFS!!

amazing... i think i can be your first mate on the same boat! lol.. i was married at 19, and now at 21 i am pregnant. im not sad at all about it, but sometimes i do wish that i waited a little bit longer to explore myself more and the world around me... but the only way i can think of it now is that i have someone to explore with.

Ok well I guess I don't have to do this challenge b/c that is EXACTLY what I would have done. My dh was my first boyfriend and we got married when I found out I was pregnant at 20. It has all worked out in the end but it has been a tough, tough road. Beautiful job Mandy. Love this....

Beautiful journalling Mandy! I totally know where you're coming from with this But, I also look at the other side of the coin and I hated my single life, so I wonder if I was still single now, would I regret not settling down - LOL! Beautiful LO!

WOW! Awesome layout Mandy - your journaling is so touching and honest! I'm on the other side (LOL), I have a career (that I hate), I'm not married (but I've been with the same person for 8 years), no children and now I plan to have a family and take care of them! Thanks for sharing this with us!
