I assume people live in a little happy bubble where everything is fine and dandy and all parents get to raise all the children they carry.

I could put up a pic of my parented daughter and none would be the wiser, or take issue with it. Even my birthdaughter's mom who is one of my friends would understand. However, it just doesn't feel authentic. Pretty much sums up my thoughts this morning when I saw the same.

We're all emo-anxious together! Technically it reads first child, which she is, no? That said, I feel that my Mom should totally make me her profile picture. Ahem. HA! Look!

On the flip side of it, it would feel weird for me to put her picture up as well. Although she is my oldest child, she isn't technically my "first born".

I can't bring myself to put my first-born's pic up, as I did not raise him, have only been reunited for a year, am not "out of the closet" with all my facebook friends, am "friends" with my oldest son and don't know what he would think of me posting him. (If I knew for sure my son would be ok with it, I think I would post it.) On the other hand, I can't bring myself to post my daughter's pic either, as she was not my first-born. This life as a first mom is complicated. I wish there was a rule book! Susie I had my breath taken away when I saw that post by several friends.
