Parenting Sense

Mood:

Listening to: Bassnectar & G Jones – Mind Tricks

It was an “enjoyable” three days off I suppose. I had my Mom hat on the entire time. Can I just say that it’s tough hearing your little one ask when the other parent will be picking them up and things of that nature? It breaks my friggin’ heart but I can’t say anything. Mum on the other hand is not afraid to say something. Something along the lines of “don’t be rude to your Mother”. Anyway, Vivian has to have a tooth pulled tomorrow. I’m so scared for her. She has no idea it’s coming and I know it’s better that way, but still. I wish that I could hold her little hand and tell her that it’s going to be alright. I have a feeling that she doesn’t trust me because she doesn’t allow me to console her the way a mother does. I’m truly grateful that Mark has the good parenting sense to take her to important appointments like that. I chickened out the other day when I was supposed to take her to get her blood drawn. I just felt bad, knowing she had a tooth extraction coming. And they won’t even put her under either, they’re using laughing gas and numbing cream. My poor baby.
