Apparently they don't care that I am gone

Tyson: Mommy are you going to work?
Me: Not today buddy, it's Sunday!
Tyson: But mommy, you need to go to work.
Me: Well yes, mommy does need to go to work but today is mommy's day off.
Tyson: Umph. But I like to play with daddy more when you are at work.
Me: I'm glad you're having fun with daddy.
Tyson: Yeah me too. I like daddy better because he's my daddy.

...and now I shall go cry myself to sleep.

It wont be long until they will bug daddy - when will mommy be home to kiss my owie and make better dinner. :-) Don't worry!

Ah, the innocence of children. See, the only reason he likes daddy better is because he's daddy. They share the same parts.

P.S. Right now Lyla is very intent on reading your blog. I believe she is commenting too. "Don't' worry Clarissa, mommy's are still the best!"

Kate does the same thing. Little ingrates!

Somedays you just have to tell yourself that one day they'll thank you for everything you do for them (and that day might not come for a long time). You're doing a great job, though, and even if the boys don't realize it yet- they will appreciate it someday!
