Yes, and it scares the arse off me

It scares me too.

Are you planning children any time soon?

I'm pregnant right now. [Touches her still flat stomach]

Oh god, you poor thing. All I can say is ditto. I hope yours hasn't been as much of a disaster as mine.

Oh god, I've been horribly sick. How far along are you?

I just hit five months. Due around the end of December. They told me the sickness should've stopped at three months, but I've never had the best luck. It's karma, I think. You just in the early days?

Yeah, I think so. Not sure yet, haven't gone to the doctors to find out but I have an appointment this week.

That's a good move. Being pregnant scared the hell out of me and I discovered I should be doing all these things I had no idea about. Of course, I have to admit I wasn't going to keep it. I'm hardly a model parent.

I still don't have an idea of what to do but my friend is talking about buying me one of those parenting books so I have a clue. I'm not sure what kind of parent I'll be yet.

I try not to. *laughs*

[Laughs as well] Why not?

Oh, I don't know... just got a hunch it wouldn't go so well for me. Still think.. I might want a kid. Sometime. ..Maybe.

I'm still way too young to think about that stuff. I mean, uh.. for me.

You're too young? [Laughs]

For me, I said! I've got a lot.. of stuff to do before kids.

Probably the kind that encourages bad behavior then punishes them when I catch them doing it. *laughs*

[Laughs] Oh, now that's just mean!

What?! If you are going to break the rules at least be smart enough not to get caught. I'm not raising any dummies.

I never stop these days. Hopefully I'll be a good one.

I think you'll be a great one, Charlie. [Smiles warmly at him] I met Snickers.

Thanks, I think you'll do a great job too. *smiles excitedly* What?? You did? When? How'd it go?

I don't know about that but I'll try. [Laughs] A couple days ago, I think it well. He's a sweet kid.

We're wondering if you'd mind bringing him over so I can teach him piano.

We'll just have to help eachother out then, eh?

Of course! Yea, that's a brilliant idea. I basically teach him everything else. Having a piano teacher may be refreshing for him. *laughs*

That would be great since you'll have more experience than me.

[Smiles more] Good! He's smart, he catches onto playing the piano rather quickly. I already taught him 'Twinkle Twinkle, Little Star.'

Barely. But two minds are always better than one.

*smiles, proudly* He is really smart. He understands everything I teach him, its great. Just make sure you make him write down things. I'm trying to get him to expand his vocabulary.

We're going to have to look into books.

[Chuckles, noticing the pride] He is, he's very intelligent. He was teaching me how to draw birds since I told him I can't draw at all. Alright, I'll be sure to.

If I ever get that honor, I will be a good parent.

I wish I had the same belief that you do.

You don't think you would make a good parent?

I'm not sure yet, I'm a little young but I guess I'll find out soon.

Are you to soon have a child?

Yes, in a few months.

Oh, that's wonderful!

I think you will do a good job. I think that I will have a child soon. Do you have a name decided yet?

Thank you, I hope that I do.

You do? And no, I don't know what I'm having yet and I haven't talked about it with the father.

I have more than two hundred days, but yes.

I hope that everything works out the way that you want it to!

More than two hundred days?

Thank you, I hope it works out well for you too!

That one still scares the shit out of me.

You and me both.
