Guilty Pleasure

Am I a bad Mom if I don’t miss the hustle and crazy bustle of my two year old right now?  

My husband misses him within the first few hours and asks “Don’t you miss our guy?” I just look up not really wanting to answer but of course that gives it away. My Mother-in-law loves to take or two year old for a few days at a time and to tell you the truth it is always such a relief. I have been known to do the happy dance after they drive away. Don’t get me wrong, I love my bossy, demanding, fit throwing, whining two year old but OH MY GOSH.........sometimes I just need to be without him. He has so much energy that even that cute little pink drumming bunny couldn't keep up, you think I’m kidding. 

So, when it’s really quiet and I get to leave my 7 month old to play on the floor and not worry about what’s going to bounce off his head next at the expense of his loving older brother, take an hour nap and oh and did I mention it was REALLY QUIET, should I feel quilty??? HA not a bit! Thank YOU Grandma!
