As little as they are they know how to manipulate us - I’ve wondered where does that come from?? You’re doing a wonderful thing, providing and teaching her a work ethic that will stand her in good stead, you’re a gem plus you write well too … thank YOU for this wonderful post!

I’m sorry that it’s so hard for you to leave her. I remember how hard it was having to leave my 2 little ones at day care. One of the loved it, and the other hated it. But now, neither even remember being in day care when they were little.

Oh, it just isn’t easy. I remember those heart-wrenching times when you just can do it all and you MUST. Wow! How I remember. But later, it seems to work out all right -

I love your last line - “my heart is forever for rent.” So hard to always be torn.

Girlie Girl used to do that. I would tear my up because I knew I was leaving for a few days. Now she says, “I think you should go to work today, Mommy.” I’m not sure what’s worse. hee hee

I feel terribly sad for you. I have a hard time leaving my daughter just to run to the store & she’s really yet to notice my absence. I admire you for the courage to be able to do what you must, I’m sure one day you will be able to explain to an understanding young woman your reasoning.. hopefully that will be enough to get you through!
