It has been a very long two weeks. My husband has worked a lot of extra hours and he then went on a four day vacation. Which means I have had my kids all to myself. This can be a long day when you don't send your kids to school or daycare. My children have not handled this change well. My son misses his daddy. He can't explain what he is going through, he just acts up. Though I have had some wonderful moments with them; for example, they played in the sprinkler after we opended up some bird eggs for science. I enjoyed just watching them. My little blondie and his cousin who is his same age in their underware and TD in her swim suit. The boys putting the hose down their pants and laughing.. and JT sitting next to me laughing at them. But it got me thinking "why would anyone choose to be a single parent". I tend to believe most who are.. choose to be. Rather they had sex out of marriage or they choose poorly in their marriage. I mean I hate not having my husband to unwind with. To share the displine with.. my son needs his dad to lay down the law.. Mommy can only do so much. I can't imagine working, coming home, and doing all that I have to do now but with no help. No thank you. My heart goes out to those moms (and dads) whose spouse died and they had no choice but to become single parents. Just watching my kids being fatherless this week has broke my heart. It has also tired me out. My heart goes out to the families who got to be a single parent house hold but not by anything they did but by circumstances beyond their control. And it makes me a bit angry to think of those who choose flat out to have a child without two parents.. They need their daddys and their mommys. Ok well gotta run my hubby is coming home tonight..yeah but he has been asked into work tomorrow. The kids are not going to be happy. But at least it will be only for a half day..of course tell that to a 6 year old and 3 year old.. The baby he just wants to talk to any man he sees right now. |
