so old
I am 21 years old. I am sitting at home on a Saturday night. Except for Aiden I am alone. I still am planning what I will be when I grow up. I still am working on plans for crazy trips I want to take and things I want to do. I still have the majority of my life left to live. So why am I so content being here under my blankets watching a movie and writing a blog? When did I get so old?

Maybe you just haven't gotten a good chance to try your party girl hat on yet!!
Personally, I like being home on Saturday nights...but it's been a LONG time since I was 21!
Thanks for stopping by.
I am 22 an di have 2 kids (age 2 and 3). I love being home on a Saturday night also. I dont think you are old i think you have just left the party life behind. Although i miss it sometimes i wouldnt change a thing. I grew up fast when i got pregnant at 18 but i accepted that responsibility and took it on head first. Now i would rather be at home than at the club (which is such a huge turn around from the 18 yo me lol). I do go out on occasion but only to dinner with other mommy firends (and some non mommy friends). We may have a few drinks and some good food but we are always home by 10 which may sound "old" to some but we enjoy our adult life.
I said all that just to say dont feel alone cause you are not the only one who enjoys being at home in a weekend!
It's called maturity :)! Kids will do that to you (or at least they should)!
I agree with the other commenters. Age and experience is one way to mature you. Kids take it to another level. In your case, you're maturing at a faster rate than many of us. (I didn't get the maturity training that comes from parenting until I was 30.)
And as for going to bed early-- who wouldn't do that when they live with their own personal boot camp trainer?
I totally understand. But didn't you feel so cozy and warm on the couch with your laptop? That's how I spent my Saturday - it was great.
Your not old honey... just content, smart, and a good role model for your little man.
Keep it up... your not missing much out partying.
