houston, we have a molar!
Went to the doctor yesterday and her ears are clear. So, now we wait for the next infection. And with cold and flu season around the corner…I am sure we are going to have a rough winter. Is this because I couldn’t breastfeed - gosh, that is always in the back of my mind - does this guilt ever go away? These are things that Dad’s never have to worry about.
We went to the park afterwards - we were dressed totally wrong - it was about 40 degrees when we left the house, my office is a nice comfy 20 degrees and her classroom is cold - so when we got to the park, it was about 80. Both of us are in long pants, I had a sweater on and she had a long sleeved shirt. The playground was too advanced for her - it was a huge structure with mazes, ropes, climbing walls, ladders, slides and she really enjoyed herself but she couldn’t keep up with the older kids and it just p*ssed her off. She would throw a tantrum every time I told her no (which was often) but we had fun. Then I had to run to Home Depot, the grocery, Kmart (which closed and I didn’t know it), and Pet Smart. She was miserable but I had to get these things done.
Last night we were getting ready for bed and I was putting her in the tub and she found a brush and started brushing her hair - I am always amazed that she remembers these things…just amazed. And then I said “come brush mommies hair” and pointed to my hair and she came over and brushed my hair and laughed. It is moments like that - really there is nothing better.
I am getting a lot of positive responses from my daycare letter asking parents about a fundraiser or donations. Most are really on board with trying to get some new toys. I am sad that I have to do this - and we are looking at other daycares. I hate to move her because I do love the teachers and the other parents and children and I think the little things I do mean a lot to the kids and the teachers but for what I am paying, I should be getting more. Perhaps my expectations are too high.
Is anyone else watching Flavor of Love? OMG..this show is insane. It is like a train wreck. DH and I watched this weeks episode last night and just laughed the entire time…these women are nutcases.
A dear family friend is dying. She has cancer and it has spread everywhere. When things like this happen I just want to shake MIL and tell her that she is so blessed and she needs to enjoy what she has - she has no idea how bad bad can really be. This friend has many kids and grandkids and she knows her time with them is coming to an end. It just breaks my heart.
