I've been feeling the guilt of a working mommy these days. Max has been sick with a cold since Thursday, maybe some of it is pollen. I'm so thankful that it isn't the flu but I was feeling guilty that I wasn't there to comfort him soooooooooo on my way home from work Friday I got him a pillow pet and some cooling gel forehead packs. Here is a photo of him and Froggy-hopper-hallway-man, named by max of course.
It's tuff when your little stuffed up child is crying mommy please don't go, stay with me just a little while and your husband is sick and needs to work and needs a break. It makes it hard to leave them even just for 9 hours. I don't hear many mom's talk about this stuff. Most of my friends are stay at home or part time. My mom did it and I know it broke her heart to have to take me to day care on Saturday mornings. But we do these things for a higher purpose and hopefully a higher paycheck higher status at work and more money for the college fund. And to our children we promise to spend more time with our grandchildren while you are off at your job putting in the work.
I'd like to send out a very special Ata-girl and Ata-boy to all those parents who work outside of the home all day and miss there kids and spouse! Keep up the good work and god bless!!!!
