Being a mom is tough. I don't know about other people but I am constantly questioning myself. Am I making the right decision? Does my hubby agree with me? Does it matter if he does or have I just made up my mind? Am I overreacting? These questions constantly wind in and out of me.
Today was tough. It is very tough.
This morning hubby and I decided to pull Nova out of her daycare. There were many reasons , the main one being, I don't think she listened to me. Such as- me " don't feed her food I haven't tried yet. Daycare: She ate Hawaiian Delight today." Me" WTF is Hawaiian Delight? Another day: Me- Please don't feed her junk food, I would like her to have fruit or veggie for a snack. Daycare- she ate a Gerber Graduate Fruit Bar. Me- Isn't the main ingredient sugar?
Why am I not being heard.
This week was the last straw. I got there yesterday and Daycare almost tossed Nova to me claiming she has been screaming all day and I can have her. I was shocked- Nova is normally very calm and is happy as all get out to play by herself. I took her home and fed her- she was fine, she even went to bed at her normal 7pm bedtime, no fussing. Probably cuz she was so tired from all that screaming! Long story short I gave Daycare our 2 week notice today and she did not take it very well. She got angry in fact. I did not think it was a good idea to leave Nova with her, so I opted to take her with me.
Man- was that hard.
When I was younger, confrontation did not bother me- now I hate it! I just wish it would all go away. I don't have the will to argue about every little thing anymore. Is this a sign I am getting older? more mature? oh man... I think I found another grey hair.
