Mom Guilt...Again

There is a cardinal rule that all mothers must follow:  Mom's aren't allowed to be sick.  I have to remind myself that at some point in my life, I will miss the effect that my illnesses can have on others.  Eventually, wanting to stay in bed will not affect anyone but my own lazy self.

So pull it together, taxi kids to their play dates, throw in a little homework, the grocery store and proceed to push through.  As my lawyer is fond of advising, I will continue to deny, deny, deny!  Besides, I don't have time for this, its the first day of my kids' summer vacation!

In the meantime, I will plot my revenge for when they have kids of their own and are feeling poorly...bless their hearts.

  1. LOL! I know what you mean and mom can't be tired because the sun is out and they want to go somewhere fun. Never a dull moment. You have to love motherhood!

  2. Ha.. I always say that a mom has one day max to recover from being sick. After that... get up and get over it:)
