Three year old Sepanx

When I started this blog, Paige was just three months old, and now she is turning three. I was not able to really pay attention to this virtual motherhood world that I created mainly because I have to juggle a full time corporate career and being a mom.

I would have preferred to work from home.

Up to this day I still cry every morning that I have to leave my daughter while she is still sleeping or worst if I have to leave her awake and pleading for me to stay. Various "takas" and "takip" moves were already mastered by my mother and though I know that my little tot will be super safe under my mother's care, I would still bleed to death every time I leave her. That's why I have this rule that every non-working hours are family time. They are all for Paige and my hubby (if daddy is not busy).

One morning, I was about to maneuver a trusted escape move when Paige talked to me and said, "Mommy I am sorry please don't go." I couldn't leave her like that because it's as if she is telling me that she is sorry for everything that she has ever done wrong (if there is any) so I won't leave her. Needless to say, another absent was added from my list. :)

Working Mom's I salute all of you. I admire your courage and strength to bear the agonizing thought of leaving your children because you know that helping your husband is important too.
