I have always wanted to be a wife and a mother. In that order. Alas life is not playing out that way. I am flipping the script and becoming a mother before I become a wife. Specifically I am becoming a single mother by choice. My baby will be a solo project and that leaves one big question, What About Dad??? I have updated my YouTube channel with another video on my journey to becoming a mom answering that exact question. How exactly will I go about becoming a Single Mom By Choice and What About Dad?
With God, family, and friends I am convinced that there will be Joy for me and my future baby joy chaser even without dad. Your thoughts???

First, your baby will have a father, someone who cared enough to contribute to your baby's existence. Whether that man ever becomes a part of your baby's social life … that's another question. In a romantic comedy, you and Mr. Sperm Donor would meet – unaware of the connection – fall in love, and marry. Okay, that's not likely, but Mr. Sperm Donor contributed – intentionally – to your baby's life. That counts.
Second, you are still seeking Mr. Chasing Joy. You might meet him at any time. He might not be the biological father of this baby, but he would – as your husband – become your baby's social dad. Your high standards would not settle for less.
So by that reckoning, your baby will have at least TWO "dads." Not to mention a mother's love before baby's existence and a grandmother's love and support and the love of your family and friends. Our Heavenly Father's love.
Those are my thoughts on the "no dad" issue. I wish you and Future Baby Joy Chaser and Future Baby Joy Chaser's dads luck and joy 😉
