So I go out with my friends and I feel guilty that I leave my children, I stay home and I feel guilty that I am ditching my friends. It’s funny how when I am home with my three monsters angels I am thinking about all the other things I need to do but when I’m out I am thinking about being home and cuddling with them. While I am at BlogHer I already have some FaceTime planned and I know I will be counting down the minutes until I am back home with them. I actually left them last year for BlogHer (Olivia was just 3 weeks old) and I have been apart from them at other times, but I just feel now like my boys are getting older and make me feel guilty. My 5 year old cries that he’ll miss me and doesn’t want me to go 🙁
I think it is impossible to find a total balance between family and me-time. I also know kids grow up so fast that pretty soon I will look back and miss those times when my boys actually cried that I was leaving – somehow I don’t think they will notice when they are teenagers!
Okay so I know I am not the only mom who feels mom-guilt, how do you deal with it? Do you shower your kids with little gifts? Do you do nothing since you are entitled to some me-time?
