Creative Writing > Memoirs Testimonies: The path toward acceptance when a pregnancy takes you by surprise

8 of 57

With an 8 month old on my hip, I tell my (then) husband I'm pregnant. Not exactly what either of us had planned. What were we going to do...what was I going to do. Here I am with an 8 month old BABY and pregnant with another. Well, I figured, at least I had a loving husband who would support us and take care of us. It wasn't ... More..

Relationships & Family > Cheating Spouses & Affairs Adultery: Affairs are a "forgivable sin"
