I’ve been working away today, left at 7am for a 2 hour train and finally due to get home around 8:30pm. My little boy (14 months) has been at nursery as usual but I’m desperate to see him and so sad that he’ll be in bed when I get home. In May I’ve got to work away overnight and I dread the thought.
I know my husband will look after him well, I know if any grandparent did then they would love it and so would he, but I’m mummy and sometimes he just needs me and the thought of him not seeing me for an extended period of time breaks my heart. I couldn’t palm him off on other people all the time, especially overnight. He has hurt himself today and has a swollen lip and I almost cried when I found out because I can’t give him a cuddle! I’m not even a ‘wrap them in bubble wrap’ overbearing parent, I just miss him!
