I enjoyed my break. I come back and I have over 100 followers! Its a close margin so I don't want to hold my breath or anything cause someone could always unsubscribe. I enjoyed taking a pause. I still read blogs. It was nice not worrying about having something to write about or if anyone will actually read it. So I think I will stick to that mentality. It feels pretty healthy.
So we went to Chick-Fil-A on Thursday. I love there nuggets, but why is there never enough of them! It disappoints me every time. I met some of my old friends from my old job. It was nice catching up. One of them is moving so it'll be even harder. I have to confess that I am terrible at keeping up with people. Mostly cause I hate talking on the phone. Hate it! Yeah for text and facebook.
But my friend's kid was being obstinate. He's almost 3 and it was technically his nap time so that's just how it goes down. But Pea ventured into the playground by herself. She kept trying to play with people or even just get in the tunnel, but would get ignored or knocked into. It made my heart hurt. When it was time to go I asked her if she had fun and she said yes, but that no one wanted to be her friend. It makes me want to punch other kids in the head. How can you not see how fun and awesome she is? You are all idiots. It makes me sad while typing it. I know that there's nothing I can really do, except love her at home and be supportive. But she's starting preschool soon and I want to protect her from those kind of feelings. How do you handle it? How do you keep from getting a little teary-eyed? Or punching other people's kids in the head?
how could you resist her?
I try not to think about it too hard. Because it will just put me into a funk.
Welcome back! Glad you had a good break.
ReplyDeleteTake care and best wishes,

ReplyDeleteNatasha-thank you
ReplyDeleteChantelle-well I hope so, since she's my kid ;)
I'm glad you had a nice break!
ReplyDeleteIt's so hard being a parent sometimes. We're always gonna be so protective of our children. I totally know what you mean. I felt the same way. Still do! :) It's so hard to see your child go off into "the world" (not just your world anymore)
Tylaine-and it just gets harder huh?
ReplyDeletefirst off, i miss not being close to a plethora of chik fil a's. they definitely arent as common up north as they are in texas.
ReplyDeleteanyway, i hate when my heart breaks for my kid based on others peoples kids. its hard letting them realize that hey, not everyone will be your friend.
your daughter sounds like my middle child. she can have fun all by herself, but also notices when she has to have fun all by herself. on mothers day, she wrote a letter to my wife and the best part was when she said she liked how my wife taught her to stand up for herself, even when no one else would.
she's 8 btw
sammy-she sounds like a strong and smart lady.
ReplyDeleteThinking does put people in a funk :) And your daughter is adorable!
ReplyDeleteKat-lol well I try not to think too much!
