thanks Momma Mia , that seems to be my struggle with this particular Mom who has a hard time swallowing that I am HER DayCare provider but I am FIRST AND FOREMOST MY kids Mommy. When they need me....I have to be there for them and support them. This is about the second time ever (in about 45 families) that I have felt like....they don't really give a crap about anyone but themselves and their needs. gggggrrrrrrrrr!!!!!! !! glad it's FRIDAY!
