role reversal

Another work day, but unlike any work day I have encountered since having J. I left J this morning in the care of Hubby. There is no work for Hubby today and might not have work the rest of the week. Of course there is work on Saturday - our date night, but I digress.

My heart ached this morning. I was envious. I was hurt. I wanted to be the stay-at-home-parent today, even though I have that luxury 2 days out of the week. Why was this day harder than any other? Normally, I leave J in the hands of a sitter. It hurts leaving her, but not as much as today ripped at my heart strings.

We'll see how Hubby fares today with J. The diapers, the crying (she is teething. . . again!), the naps, the playing. It is fun, but tough. Good luck Hubby. I envy you.
