Cue the Violins

It was very hard for me to leave the house today for work. My son kept saying “No mommy go, mommy stay home” over and over and took my lunch and water bottle out of my hand to entice me to stay. Little does he know, no enticing is necessary; I would give anything to stay, but work calls…

Of course, I had to act as though my leaving was a great thing. “Mommy will be back to play in a few hours.” 8 1/2 to be exact. "When I get home, we'll get out the play doh and make animals and have so much fun!" But he would not relent today. He was screaming “I want mommy” as I walked out the door, tears in my eyes.

Cue the violins…

Who wouldnt want to stay home with this face all day?
