Life has given me a couple of slaps upside the head in the last day or so with a couple of dear friends going through some really bad personal experiences. This is how it goes. I am so down and so low then life reminds me I need to pick myself up and help other people. That's my job. It's what I do. I love doing it.
So onwards and upwards. Yesterday, having a quiet day at home with my daughter after a couple of full on days with friends, my daughter lauded the 'I hate you Mummy' phrase three times. First time, I let it slide right off. Second time, I gave her the 'Don't talk to your Mother like that' line. Third time, I weilded the full extent of the law and banned TV all day today.
It's going to be a long day. I think I'll hide in my studio and sew.
Aiming to finish off this little number today.

Use this one back. "I know you don't love me at the moment, but I just want to let you know that Mummy loves you very much, now go and put your swimmers on ... ".
I got the "I hate you Mummy" once. My response? "Right now I'm not that fond of you either."
