It happens, every single time I go out and buy myself I have the neverending mothers guilt thing happen. Its like lightening...buy a new pair of shoes.."oh the girls need this..I shouldn't have bought those shoes and bought them this instead". I feel its the lingering effects of the supermom periods of my life that I went through after having both my kids.
It never fails that after I do/get/buy something I have a built of guilt and end up buying something for them or making it up to them in some weird insane way. For instance I am insane need of sweaters, I hate being cold so during the winters I try to bundle up. I went to buy some sweaters and also bought the girls things. Why? Why? Why?
I feel that the guilt isn't just in my head, the girls do it to me on occassions when I can't fight them. Can't raise my head because I am so sick..."But mom you promised.." yes please add some guilt to the nausea please.
The bright side is this: when I get old, I can totally daughter guilt them.
