Sad without the kids

[MsColour]

My kids were with their dad this weekend. I've had a really great weekend with my bf, I've also got lots of jobs done. But got back home and could hear other children playing out in their gardens and it all left me feeling sad that I couldn't spend this lovely weekend with my kids. Now spent my evening crying over it. Much as I know I need time without my kids for myself and I know they need time with their dad I don't ever seem to be able to get used to my time without them :(

Sorry that you are feeling this way.

I feel like it as well sometime when DD goes and stays with her dad. We know it's for the best but it's still hard.

Sorry you are feeling sad.
At least your weekend was full of stuff that will make the week ahead easier. it's natural to miss the ones you love.

For a different spin...I am never without mine, abusive Dad has indirect contact only so I never get any jobs done, never go out without children and am housebound of an evening......there are pluses and minuses in every situation i guess.

Hope you can award yourself a or according to taste and a nice bath or something before you dive back into the fray of full on family life!
