whenever i travel with the bf now, i feel guilty about leaving the baby. i'm just away for 2-3 days at most but i still feel sad about having to leave him behind. when he was younger, it was okay. after all, he does not exactly understand it. but now that he is more aware, i feel really guilty. take for instance this week, when he saw me dressed to go, he said "i want to come with you". oohh! i told him i'll just come back right away and i'll take him to the mall afterwards. i actually took the entire week off from work just so i could spend quality time with him. he also got to spend time with his dad before we left.
because of the guilt that i feel, i always make it up to the baby. i spend the whole day with him, feed him, take him out and buy him toys. it's the only way i know how to make up for my absence. and i think he likes it. i just got back early this morning and the baby was already awake. so i took him to my bedroom. he just played on the bed while i rested. then we went out and i got him a new toy (luckily, it was inexpensive) afterwards, we went home and i gave him his lunch. now, we're holed up in the bedroom. he's playing with his toys and watching cartoons at the same time. time to bond! = )
