Hallelujah, I feel human again! This morning started a little shaky, still with some cramps, headache and dizziness but those were normal kind of aches. Andrew and the kids were talking about going out so I decided to join them. We just went to a local diner for lunch then to a bookstore and to a park close by but it all felt so refreshing and enjoyable in a new way. I was relieved and thankful that I was able to spend a normal Saturday afternoon with my family.
I even baked scary fingers with the kids tonight. One of the treats I was going to do for the Halloween party.
I have to say, Andrew has been my rock through this awful time. I had to completely depend on him for everything and it was very hard for the both of us. I am not used to delegating my responsibilities around the house and when it comes to kids everything has to be done in my “perfect” way. Even though I complained and got mad at him a lot this week, I give him huge credit for doing so much for me and the kids. So thank you so much, honey!
He declared, in his mind he did the best job he could with the kids. And I’m sure he did. But even though he showered the kids every other nights, they were beginning to smell…a little bit funky… like little puppies. Especially Chloe’s hair was looking really really interesting. So the first thing I wanted to tackle was showering them. I spent a good 20 min. trying to comb through Chloe’s hair. And finally, it felt SO GOOD knowing my kids are clean again!
Mommy is back.
