In a good way. At 17, we all thing our lives will be exactly as we plan. I have yet to meet the person that has actually happened to. I constantly struggle with trying to find myself. Between who I was pre-kids and who I am now. It's hard. I suffered from undiagnosed PPD after I had my first daughter for 2 years. I didn't realize anything was wrong. I just thought life sucked. Although I will always regret not being about to bond with my oldest the way I've been able to with her younger sisters, we survived and are good now. In the end, I count it as a win.

You were a person before your kids and will continue to be so after they grow and leave the nest. You can still be Cat, an older, wiser, and more mature variation, while continuing to be mom. It may require some juggling and time management but it's no sweat, you are a mom right? ;) Besides, I think you could so rock some hot pink streaks at any rate in a very sophisticated hairstyle of course. You are only 24 after all! @MommyGeek, But that’s just it, you DON’T turn off “MOM” to be “CAT”, you become Cat the Mom. :) Yes, becoming a parent changes you, changes your whole life but it doesn’t mean you have to lose yourself entirely into it.

Maybe for the better? I'm less impulsive. I think the tough part is turning off Mom and getting back to Cat. It's not an easy switch.... motherhood has changed my core. I don't know if I can even do it anymore. @Ashley, I guess I could… but I think that the MommyGeek part of me has sort of changed the Cat part. Maybe for the better? I’m less impulsive.
