I want to kill DH

He took the opportunity to have an 8 pm flight tonight, that would land him home around 11.  Leaving me to do bedtime alone, the most traumatic time of night.  He says he didn't think of bedtime when he took the offer but after the h*ll I just endured in 1 short hour, I want to throttle him.

I feel really bad about how I handled myself.  Sure, dealing with a screaming itty bitty baby and a hurt (emotionally) toddler is hard but I was mean to DD.  Nothing warrants that.  And please, no flames.  I'm hard enough on myself without any lectures.  I just hope she sleeps well (at least until DH gets home and is on duty) and forgives me.

    She will forgive you.  I've been there.  I've apologized to my kids before!

    Ugh -- I think we've all been there, M.  I had a similar situation about 10 days ago, and spent a good long time crying about it to my mom, who, in turn, told me what I just told you.  We've all been there.  It's part of the beautiful torture that is motherhood. 

    Know that you are loved; by us, and by your sweet babies. 

     

    ((hugs))

    you forgive yourself by reminding yourself that it was 1 moment in her life.  one short moment where mommy snapped.  and remind yourself that she has so many other moments where mommy has been fun loving and sweet.  and know that it shows her EVERY ONE gets frustrated.  to her, it's just like a tantrum.  she knows you were too frustrated to use your words, and to her...that just means you're just like her.

    (can you tell i've had to talk to my therapist about this before?)

    This.  Methinks Joe's therapist (and Joe) are very wise.

    BIG hugs!
