Uncle Gordon came to visit Wee Baby this weekend! His plan was to stay a couple days and babysit Mariella on Saturday so Pat and I can get dressed up and head to the yearly company gala. I was really looking forward to getting out the house. Wearing shoes and putting on some lip gloss would have been fun. But to be honest, wanting to go and actually leaving was two totally different things. When the time came upon us.. I didn’t want to go. I wasn’t ready to leave my Wee Baby for the evening.
She would have been in wonderful hands with her Uncle G$. Gordon is an amazing father and had his fair share of watching kids. But I was not emotionally ready to part from her. It is weird because I want some me time. I want to break away for a few hours and take some time for Mommy, but I miss her when I am gone. I went to Target for a couple few hours while Pat and Gordon kept her. I think I called 5 times to see how things were going. Just couldn’t help myself.
Anyway, Gordon understood. He didn’t come down on me for making him come all the way to Maryland to babysit and come to find out he didn’t have too. He is a good brother like that! Thanks so much Gordon! It was really fun having you visit and I know Mariella enjoyed your company!
Angel….
After him raising the family he has he totally understands what you were going thru…..love to all of you!!!!
