The scariest situation I have been in was September 11th and 3 am. That night, I got up to check on my son and noticed he was having a very hard time breathing and so I went to get the phone and picked him up to call his doctor. They asked me all these questions and then he seemed to be getting worse. I hung up the phone on them and just took him in to the ER and they took him in right away and hat him breathing normally again after a couple hours. The doctor came out and told me that I did good by bring my son in since he was so little because he was born on the 3rd that same month. Well, little baby's forget to breath and that's what causes SIDS. The only thing I did after that was thank god my baby was alive and well.

My most embarrassing moment has to be one day when I was at school I think I was 8 months pregnant. Well at that time it was really hard for me to walk around form class to class because I would get really tired. I hardly ever went to school during that time anyway but the day I did decide to go my feet where really swollen. I was very tired. So I was trying to get out of school as soon as possible and while walking almost running down the hall-way I fell and had a hard time getting back up cause of my big belly(I was SO huge). Good thing I have good friends that helped me get back up and go.

If I could have any job in the world I think it would be a pediatrician. I would like to be a pediatrician because they specialize in baby's toddlers and older children and ever since I was little I wanted to be a pediatrician because I love baby's and love seeing them healthy.

Civil Rights Movement

2009-05-05T08:41:00.000-07:00

The Civil Rights movement was a time between 1955 to 1965 when congress passed the Civil Rights act of 1964 and the voting rights act of 1965, which meant giving basic civil rights to all Americans regardless of race. Some of the people that where involved in the Civil Rights movement where Rosa Parks, Malcolm X, Martin Luther King Jr, and Ruby Bridges. These where all important people in the Civil Rights movement. They each did different things like Ruby Bridges was the first girl to attend a whites only school, but each person had their own part in the Civil Rights movement.

"What did you struggle with the most? Write about it."
I think the one thing I have ever really struggled with was my whole pregnancy and learning how to be a mom. I struggled with my pregnancy because I had so many problems at the time and was very scared. Then again who wouldn't be. Pregnant at 14 and have no one to help you is not the situation you want to end up in. My mom was mad at me, my child's father had broken up with me but yet you still had to move in with him! We fought all the time which made my pregnancy very difficult as is if it wasn't already. Then learning how to be a mom is I think hard for everyone because, hello, kids do not come with a handbook. But parenting I think from what I experienced so far its hard but with time things just play out.
