Today, as I tried to defend our new music teacher, I got told that I need to find a place for my child to be the night of the concert... "You have places where she could go" is what was said. He's absolutely right. My family would be more than willing to take her for the night. Why should they? It's a kids concert. Why can't she come and enjoy the Christmas music? How dare you tell me I can't be with my child especially when this is not time I'm getting paid for? I'm sick of not being with her. I had to find a place for her 2 nights because of conferences. With that being sad, I started to cry. Grrr. I was informed I shouldn't be emotional. That set me over the top! I was done.
So, tonight, I sit here with tears flowing down my cheeks. I'm so angry. Angry at the man who thinks it's okay to tell someone that they can't be emotional. Yup. Because this is the man who has had a spouse off in another country fighting for our freedom, been a single parent, and spent the holidays alone. Psssshaaaa! Not! I hope his turkey gets burnt!
