Mama needs a sick day

The other day, I had the unfortunate luck to get a migraine.  It was pretty bad.  Of course, it was just me and the girls at the house, so even though I wanted to stay in bed and sleep it off, I couldn't.  Moms don’t have that luxury. When you’re a mom, you can’t call in sick no matter how much you want to. Even if your significant other is home, the kids still find you. My husbands response when I told him about my migraine was “I’m sorry honey.” Yes, he was at work at the time but he still didn’t really step up the extra little bit when he got home. Now, if he has a migraine, he spends the whole day in bed and doesn’t do anything. I bring him drinks and medicine. I have even left work early because he was throwing up. I almost threw up on both of my girls that day and all I got was an “I’m sorry.” One day, I really will take a sick day and he will have to figure it out. It will probably be when the girls are old enough to take care of themselves, though.
