Sometimes it is...I think we can all relate to this. Sometimes it is very hard. You have to be Florence Nightingale, but dealing with it full on for several days can be a tough one.<br /><br />I am exactly the same. When mine are ill, I can be good mum for the first day, then it starts to be draining, but you feel you can't moan about it or be seen to be a rubbish mother!<br /><br />Mine usually get ill on the day when something special is planned. Something I have been excitedly waiting to come and then I can't go/do it, because a child is ill. I REALLY have to bite it hard to not be cross and just be cuddly mummy! That's kiddiwops for you!<br /><br />When I need a little break, I make sure hubby looks after them for a while in the evening so I can have an uninterrupted hot bath with my ipod on and relax for a bit, then I feel able to tackle it all for a few more days!<br /><br />Cake is good too!<br /><br />Hope the little one gets better soon for you.<br /><br />Vanessa xCoco Rose Diarieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00708755502453874593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5170508063002489160.post-20428317658603264172010-10-25T15:57:11.002+01:002010-10-25T15:57:11.002+01:00Oh, you're welcome, not a problem ;-) Believe ...Oh, you're welcome, not a problem ;-) Believe me, we all get like that from time to time and it doesn't make you a bad mother. Chill when you get a chance, take a walk in this beautiful weather (with big ear muffs for the little one)and have a big slice of chocolate cake - et voilĂ , the world is ok again ;-) Have a good week, Love from South of the River xCarole Poirot https://www.blogger.com/profile/01827490098818817610noreply@blogger.com
