I just got home a few minutes ago, from taking the kids bowling, and there was a message on the Answering machine from my mom. So I called her back, and she wanted to come up and take the kids to a movie. Unfortunately the kids are scattered to the wnds today, with Birthday parties, and I have my Bowling league in a few hours as well. So we made plans for mom to come up after work next friday, and spend the weekend with the kids. So after we got done talking and had hung up the phones, It just dawned on me, that this is the first weekend my mom is all alone after Dad's passing! I feel like such a heel! I cannot believe that i didnt realize this before!! Times like this, are when I wish my mom lived just a little closer! She only lives a bit over an hour away from me, but it is just enough to make things hard you know?? Had I realized I wouldnt have had the kids make all of these plans! I feel so bad!!
