I'm doin' the happy dance because my son Christian is going to respite in an hour. He's a sweet thing, but he's 24/7 total care. We get respite once a month and this is my weekend. I have to work the whole time,but I don't even care
Thanks for understanding. I know here on the Coping board nobody will flame me for "not loving my kid" or "putting him in the care of strangers" or leaping for joy because my kid is going away for 48 hours I love him to death and would willingly die for this child, but part of keeping myself mentally healthy is accepting occasional respite from the daily grind.
The naysayers can come over and walk a mile in my shoes any day
