I've been pondering a lot lately about my life and where it's going. I'm 22 and it seems like I've been through all of life's major steps: getting married, having a baby, graduating college, etc. What is next is what I keep asking myself. Apparently the only logical answer is to just have another kid. But I can't do it. I don't want to be that person with 3 kids under the age of 3. I don't want to be the stereotypical Mormon mom who has 7 kids under the age of 10, is primary president, does all the family's geneology, and still manages to keep a clean house. I just can't do it. At one point in my life, I thought I wanted that. But now I think I want to be different. I don't want to fit into the stereotype. Is that so bad?

Are you making fun of us? Haha...:-) Do what you're heart tells you. I'm kind of in your boat in that I am trying to figure out my goals and wants for the future. Good luck. You're very smart, so you will do well in all that you chose to do.
Making lots of choices is what life is all about, just make them good ones.
Being totaly content is not normal for anyone, just be happy and enjoy what is happening around you.
Knowing you have accomplished much but still wanting more is a good thing.
Remember you are loved by so many people, and you help us all to be better by you just being you.
What ever you do we will support you.
Hey I did the three kids under the age of three. it is a lot of hard work and I wouldn't punish anyone with it. You will find things fall into place, and most of the time it will be something that you would have never dreamed of happening. Have faith. Don't get to caught up with what you should be doing and enjoy the "now". Before you know it your oldest is turning 12. and you wish they were that baby again, who didn't talk back, and was happy to see you.
Sorry, I am just now playing blog catch up, so I know this is an old post. I don't think it is bad as long as you aren't doing just to be different. Do you know what I mean? I think it is all about doing what you and your family should be doing and no one knows what that is but you, your husband, and the Lord.
