Like...that doesn't trigger abandonment fears at all, nope!

I am pretty sure my T would have rather had the whole day off, but she needs money, so she worked half a day. I am not bothered by a statement like that, because he was attentive and fully "there" with you guys today, right?

There are many days where I wish I had the day off, but am still fully there for my kiddos. It doesn't mean I don't care for them anymore, just that sometimes it is nice to have a break
Thanks for this!
