Yesterday we said goodbye to my mum, she has been up helping us this week and for me, it was sad to see her go. After the half term next week I am going to hit the ground running with doing the 'family' on my own during the day…yikes…
Felt very emotional about it all yesterday, not just mum leaving but the fact that it feels like the newborn days are slipping through my fingers faster than sand and i have no idea how to stop it. Which, yes, is dramatic of me to say but hey..im hormonal, i am also 'one of those people' that just loves newborns……lots…
But that isnt why i titled this post 'disappointment.' I did it because of this lovely little boy…
who was supposed to be going with my mum on the 'pendalino' back to Ashford. His ultimate, ultimate. But yesterday morning he came down with a virusy, fever thing that left him asleep for most of the morning on the sofa and we decided that he couldnt go. When I said to him i didnt think he would be able to go, his disappointment and hurt was practically palpable and I felt so horrible and so gutted for him it brought tears to my eyes. I wanted him to go, but he needed to stay, it was a merry battle in my mind all day!!
But despite all the disappointment there was a bit of a silver lining, he got to play Wii for ages, his new best friend.
