I guess we are not perfect. I did that to bb too sometimes. When I realize what I did, I would quickly give him lots of hugs and kisses and apologise to him. One thing good is he is always very forgiveful. 🙂

I had that sort of a weekend too. my own emotions take over me and i take it out on harvynna. I attended a course on EQ before and it states that parents esp have to have an outlet of negative energy as we may take it out on the innocent children otherwise. Easier said than done, though!

it is not easy to be a care giver on a 24×7 basis and have to put bread on the table. go easy on yourself.

hope you can find your balance…

*sigh* it happens to all “tired” mommy. I think we need a time-out..shopping, spa or something to cheer us up so that we won’t take it out on our precious darling…agree?

Thank you all for your comments.. What I’m trying to say here is, it’s really not rosy all the time in the home. We have our ups and downs, and sometimes I just get very affected by my ‘downs’ and this effect may extend to Zara.

I’m conscious this is not right, but sometimes I just can’t control it (although I’m trying very hard to).

I don’t believe it has anything to with the pregnancy hormones, because I’d been like that since Day 1.

And I don’t bring my work problem home. Work is not that critical to me that it can actually affect my moods.

I’m aware of this, and am consciously putting an effort to ‘control’ this temperament.

I absolutely love and adore Zara, and because of this, she’s teaching me to be a better person. 🙂
