How Do You Do It Alone?

I get this question all the time. It is often paired with someone trying to describe me as a saint. Hah!! They don’t know me that well.
Tomorrow we run out to get my Grandma (and therefore my kids Great Grandma) from the shore. Thus starts the marathon of Mr. N sitters.
- Grandma stays with Mr. N on Thursday and Friday (goodness, we need to pick up the train tracks in the living room and toys in the playroom or she’ll break a hip!).
- Rachael comes down to stay with Mr. N for the following week.
- My Dad and Step-Mom come down the week after.
- The following week Mr. N is “free”, as he puts it, and will go back to camp.
I may be single, but I’m far from alone. Married/single/etc./etc. the only way you make it work is with a support network and I have a great one.
