Sometimes getting what you want is a bitch

by Jodifur on December 28, 2006

Doug stayed home with Michael today, like I wanted. Actually, like I needed. Work is still a mess and I have a day full of meetings and two trials next week. I had to go in today.
But, I'm not going to see Michael today. My 5 year old nephew's Hanukkah present was tickets to High School Musical: The Concert . (Has any adult but me seen this and loved it? See this for more on my love of bad tv). So, I'm going straight to pick my nephew up and to the show. If it was anyone else, I'd cancel. But my nephew is so looking forward to this, and yes my sister would take him, but I promised him.
I'm worried about Michael. I'm worried about Doug. It's hard being home all day alone with sick baby, I know, I did it yesterday. I'm worried about Doug getting the medicine correct. He's a really smart, capable guy, and I know he will do fine. But, I'm worried.
Is this the destiny of parenthood? Not really trusting anyone else, even your spouse?

In short, the answer is, yes.

My husband is/was the stay-at-home dad, and I still nag him about everything.
