Well it's been a couple weeks since I took my test and I still haven't told anyone besides my best friend Jason. He was really cool about it. I mean he was upset because he knew I'd have a hard time, but he didn't judge and just told me that he was there for me through the whole thing.
But I need to tell my parents, and soon. However, I can't tell them until one more person knows about my little bundle in the oven. Daddy.
I feel very blessed though. A vast majority of teenage mothers don't even love the guy who is the father. Me and Mason (Daddy) love each other very much. We have for a long time. The only reason I haven't told him about it before now is because I don't want him to have to deal with the stress that I know will follow him finding out.
I told him today though. We went up on a hike and when we got to the top of the trail, we stopped to take in the view. He hugged me and when he did I took his hand and placed it on my belly. "Do you feel that bump?" Thinking I was concerned about my weight he said no and removed his hand.
I took a deep, steadying breath, remembering that I'd promised myself I wouldn't cry, and took his hand again. Once again setting it on my stomach. "Mason... That isn't me." He just looked at me, trying to figure out what I was saying. Then I saw it click.
He looked down at my stomach and touched my shirt lightly. "May I?" he asked. I nodded and he lifted up my shirt just enough to see a little round spot. A part of me that hadn't been there weeks before.
The look in his eyes was a combination of absolute agony and the purest love on earth. Through that one look I could tell that he agreed with me on the most important decision we would make our whole life: this baby is ours. We won't give it up.
Of course he wanted to be absolutely sure so we went and picked up another test then went back to his house and I took it. Once again: positive.
We sat on his couch and he held me while I cried. He cried some too, which surprised me becuase in all the time I've known him he has never cried in front of me.
But we'll make it. We'll be ok, we can stay strong. Together.

you are right in that you are blessed, i can see through your writing your love for eachother, and it is not an irrational love created in this tough time, but a love that can withstand this. Good luck and best wishes in your journey as well as mason and your child's journeys

Wow!
Teenage Mother and Father....Sounds to me like you found a good guy!
I hope nothing but the best on this "Journey" together! I think the way you told him was amazing and that you told him before your parents, shows a lot of respect.
Clearly you have both decided to keep the baby, so I think both of you (now that you are a team) should tell both your parents together.
It's not about the age of being a parent...but the maturity and responsibility!
God Bless and enjoy your journey,
