Life before parenthood....

I was always your typical teenager once I hit high school. Thought I knew everything, when actually, I didn't know a bloody thing! Pretty moody, thought I was an adult etc etc. Then I hit 14 and I just turned into a nightmare.

Skipped school a lot, partied a lot, drank underage far too much.... 

Left school at 16, as soon as I could, against everyone's wishes.

Decided I was moving out and in with my boyfriend of 2 months (yes, 2 months) at 16... Didn't last long, moved back home. 

Then when I hit 17, I changed completely. 

I think I just woke up one morning and wondered what the hell I was doing with my life! 

I attended a "get ready for work course" which basically gained me employment skills and taught me how to be an "adult" really. Through this course I managed to find my first job. 

I started working at a private nursery in January 2008 and whilst working I gained my qualification in childcare and I'm not ashamed to say I was so proud of myself working here. 

I achieved my qualification in a year & a half, I had been a qualified nursery nurser not even when I was promoted to supervisor. I met some great people through that nursery & some others I'd tater forget. I had many great nights out with people here and met some people who I will always remember. Staff, parents & children. 

From 17 onwards, work was my focus but I loved my weekends. 

Was always out treating myself, always blonde, always had a tan and always had my hair done. Oh and always the last one on the dance floor on a Friday & Saturday night! 

Then I met Craig, and everything changed... My world turned upside down... For the better and I've never looked
back...
