Mommy Guilt
By Hyla Molander
"OK, well, use a different one. Come on, Tat, we're already
running late!"
Why can't they just be grateful for what I give them? Don't
they know that I was an actual person before I had kids?
So, what is the point of this guilt? This mommy guilt. Why
do I let it drain me? Why can't I just accept the fact that I
am only one person?
I fling their backpacks on the bottom of the stairs, take a
breath, and run through my mental check-list: homework
folders, library books, fieldtrip permission slip, extra
diapers, share-day puppy, pacifiers, baseball gear.
All there.
