My name is Ellie. I was born in McCook Nebraska on June 9th, 1997. I moved to Lincoln right before I entered kindergarten. I went to a small private school from Kindergarten-5th grade than went on to Middle School and High School at another private school. (I don't feel like mentioning the schools names). I got pregnant my freshman year of high school. That was obviously a shock to the small sheltered school.... I was planning on giving my baby up for adoption and that was perfectly acceptable... So I started looking through parents but they didn't fit my criteria. I think that was Gods way of saying that i should keep her. (Maybe I'm crazy. Maybe I'm not. I don't care.) So long story short, the administration at this school didn't like the fact that i was keeping my baby, going against "The Book", and how it looked "bad" to have a single mother at that school. I was formally asked to leave. I am now at a public high school. BUT, the summer before my 10th grade year, on July 6th, I gave birth to the most beautiful human being this world will ever set their eyes on. She is now MY six month old daughter. Everything changed that day. While i was pregnant I knew the general idea of the responsibilities of being a parent but no one told me how it would feel or how it REALLY changes your life. No one told me that you would sacrifice everything for that one human being. Anyway! Enough of that depressing stuff.
That is pretty much my life in the smallest nutshell. :)
