Last night Bossman came home and gave me some gummy lifesavers and a card. Now that might not seem like a big deal to some people, but it brought tears to my eyes. (Not the gummies, the card) He wrote in the card that he was put on this planet to love me forever! How sweet was that??!
It's such a nice surprise to realize someone was thinking of you, for no reason other than they love you. Even though we've been married for 15 years, I can't help but be surprised by stuff like that. It really makes me feel loved and appreciated.
And then reality steps in.
Of course I had a big fight with the wildchild last night. I have been so nice to her the last couple of days, and she just takes complete advantage of me. I have to ask her 10 times to do anything. She thinks if she procrastinate long enough I'll forget I asked her to do it. It's typical teenage stuff, and I know that, and she isn't really a bad kid, but I sometimes I just can't take it anymore. I'm not someone that makes her do endless chores, she only has to clean her bathroom and bedroom and she does the dishes every other day. PLEASE, that is NOTHING!!! And yet she acts like I'm treating her like Cinderella. SHEEZ....I can only wish I had it that good as a kid.
Oh well, I'm only human, and trying to do the best I can for my kids. If it's not good enough...well, it's all I've got.
later.........
