…the rest of the time I do what I have to…
Not been a good day today
Don’t get me wrong, I love my job, but I couldn’t be a full time Mummy, I’m just not that patient. But I do believe that if you have children you should want to spend time with them.
I didn’t want to go back to full time work quite so soon. I had always intended that I would be a part time Mum until Spider went to school (next September) but it hasn’t worked out that way due to our huge financial mess up.
Now I don’t think Spider is suffering because he gets time with his grandma, who he adores and he also gets 5 mornings at pre-school (which he needs) and I am using my leave to ensure that we still have time together – we go swimming once a week, which as far as he is concerned is the best fun a small boy can have away from the seaside…but I miss him, and some days it is really hard to do what I’m meant to do and not what I’d really like to be doing…splashing in puddles or hunting dragons with the smallest knight in the land…
