Re: kinda off subject-but support related

[Guest guest]

, I can totally relate. My husband and I don't

have family in California either. He is from Jamaica

and I am from North Carolina. We have a great daycare

provider that does care during the day and because it

is military, sometimes she had kids overnight and on

weekends. She never has time for herself and is

always telling me to leave the boys so me and my

husband can go away. I never do because I feel guilty

because her entire life is compounded with keeping

other people's kids. Both of her daughters are

graduated so in some sense, others' kids are like

having her own kids again.

What I have done in the past is took a day off and my

husband and I would go do something for the day but I

plan to discuss the possibility of having my daycare

provider to watch them at least once a month...maybe

twice a month on a Saturday evening so we can go out

on a date. She always tell me to but I feel guilty

because she needs time to herself to. I pray she

never gets out of the business because she is the best

by far.

Nonetheless , if I hear of anything, I will let

you know..okay.
