Kalen My Baby BoyHi, My name is Celeste I'm currently 17 years old, and while most 17 year old girls are just gaining freedom...i'm losing it. Weird thing is I couldn't be happier about it. I'm happy because I now have a wonderful person in my life, one that i know won't leave me...no not some 18 year old boy who says he'll love me forever, but the little 15 month old boy that i call son. His name is Bently Dace Cooper...he has the last name of his father. Even though me and his father wernt together for my pregnancy and the first 10 moths of Bently's life.His dad Landon Rae Cooper and I are now together.Hopefully we will stay that way...but life's funny like that, you may be sad about it one day then the next relize that your child is the best thing to happen to you and no one in the world can change that.Celeste My Jr YearHi my name is Mary Lou Pena. I'm from Brackettville Texas and I had a baby girl doing my Jr year. Well when I found out that I was going to have a baby well it change your life. witch means where i go my baby goes. I love my daughter she is my world her dad loves her. i take my daughter to see her dad. we get along good. its hard to have a baby when your in school. no lie but you have to learn that having a baby is going to be hard cause you have to take them to the doctors, buy pampers, milk, clothes and stuff. you want your child to be safe and have a good life give them what they need. Don't let anyone tell you that your not a good mom cause you are.Mary Lou Pena He Helped Me Grow UpWhere do I start..... I was 17 when I found out I was pregnant. I actually didn't find out till I was 4 months. When I told my son's father he told me to get an abortion. We were not together through out the whole pregnancy. He was there to watch my beautiful son be born on May 19th 2010. Dominick (my son) helped me realize a lot. After Dominick was born his father and I tried to work things out but then he cheated on me with my used to be best friend. That is the last time I ever tried to work things out because I have realized that I am spend too much time thinking of him instead of my baby. I am 19 now my son will be one this month. I am scheduled to graduate May 28th and I am also in the Army National Guard. I chose this career to make a better life for my son and I. I Love You Dominick Rafael Ortega con todo mi corizon!!!!
