I've been off all week, just me and my daughter. We did a lot despite the rainy and cloudy weather. During the week, I've thought often what I've missed being a working mom.....or more importantly, is she missing or did she miss anything with me working.
I try very hard to give her everything that I did not have growing up. Perhaps if I wasn't working, there would be some sacrifices, but my parents sacrificed and I came out ok.....but then again, the cost of living is 'out of control' nowadays. So what is a mom to do?
Now that she is older, it is probably ok that I work. Setting an example when I bring her to the office or she sees me working from home. Women can be successful in a 'mans' world. She also has afterschool activities and she wants to be with her friends more. But what about the other years, when she was younger and at daycare.....
I know it's too late to do anything now....perhaps I'll hit the lottery ..... but Lord knows I try.....
I also been thinking about what she missed or me even, not having another child.....so many what ifs....
ok...now I am just feeling sad, is it the weather? Am I lacking sun? Whatever the case may be, I hope my daughter knows that everything I do, I do for her. She is #1 in my life and hope she knows that always....
