I think that there is a new Standard Question that I am just now getting to in life.
You know the Standard Questions:
Youngster - What do you want to be when you grow up?
Teenager - How soon do until you get to drive?
Older Teen - Where are you going to college?
Young Adult - What is your major? (sometimes followed up by: Really?)
College Grad - When are you going to get married?
Married - When are you going to have kids?
Expecting a Child - Are you nervous??
Am I nervous? YES!!
Am I nervous? NO!!
Be specific!
What I am nervous about, as it relates to the next six months of my life, is mostly short term. I am a little nervous....
...that I going to pass out during the delivery.
...that I will let Anny down if I pass out during delivery.
...being sure that I am appropriate with how we spend time with people once Abby's here.
I am NOT nervous about the things that some people mean to imply. I am not nervous about...
...Abby taking all of Anny's attention from me.
...changing diapers. Yes, they're gross, but I've been there and done that.
...most things!
I think that mostly people are trying to spark conversation, but that can be quite a loaded question!
Friends, ask your questions, but sometimes it is good to be specific. If you're not specific, you could get an answer that's much more than you bargained for.....
Have you ever thought about putting advertising on your site? I do and have made $100 in about 3 months. If so contact me and I could help you set it up. Take care!
