I'm going to be a young single mom at the age of 18. Born&raised in SoCal. I'm half filipino and half white. I'll always be a kid at heart, but I'm more mature than you think. I'm overall a friendly person. I'm REALLY excited to meet my little boy on Feb 6, 2010. My son will have a beautiful mix of filipino, white and mexican blood. He was unplanned, but my miracle baby! This little guy has got momma sprung. I'm gonna give him everything he deserves which means college is coming soon for me then hopefully in a few years I'll have a job/career set. But anyways, I joined this so I can meet other moms and share the experience. Feel free to message me/pt me or whatever! I also have a myspace, add me. search for me on fb(: merrilynn grondin
