you know i have the two imps, 26 and 16. and that the older got here wednesday, after not seeing her for a year, after the boy has been here since the last part of june.
with that age difference, it was almost having two families. and they DEFINITELY had different mamas. beth had the mama that DID go hiking and to the beach, and everything else. ian cannot REMEMBER me going to the beach. at all. he can only remember me sick, and trying to do nice things, and getting sicker because of it. i'm sick from taking them to the zoo right now. i'm not sure if i'm going to make it back to my parents' tonight to see my daughter before she leaves (she understands that).
but...damn. and yes even when your kids are SURE to understand, you still get the guilt feelings. *hugs you very gently*
