No “vab”

I am struggling a bit with not being able to “vab” anymore. Vab is what you call a day when you have a sick child and need to stay home from work to care for him/her and get paid from the government to do so. This benefit ends when your kids become teenagers. Then they are old enough to care for themselves. But I still feel exhausted after being up a whole night, I still worry about my child when he is sick and home alone. I really coped better when they were younger and I was allowed to be there for them.image

Stopped for a sandwich on my way home – to get a break and time to get myself together before I turn into supermom again.

When I got back home we had company in our backyard. Should I put on some coffee? Not sure what to do with this kind of guest.
