Realized I probably wasn’t a planned pregnancy

Long story short, I was talking with a friend about what we did during autumn break and I told her that I was visiting my family that live in a more rural area up north from the city where me and my close family (Mom, Dad and brother) live. She asked me why my parents moved from the rural area/how they ended up in the city we now live in, and I explained to her how they moved here together for my mom to get her nursing education, and for my dad to work closer to the border, then stayed because I was born.

I don’t know why it took me so long to realize that it was never my parents’ plan to stay here in the city. And that it maybe even wasn’t a plan to stay together, but did it because I was born. Either way, they love me very much and I am happy to have grown up where I have.
It makes me wonder how many of us were actually planned. I'm thinking at the end of the day it doesn't really matter, what matters is we are loved by the people we call mom and dad. It appears you're very lucky to have been loved so much and I'm certain any sacrifice your parents have made for you they would do it again because of the love you bring to them. 🤗
