Day 47 – Closer bond?

A strange thought occurred to me as I was walking home from the pool with they boys today.  It had been a fine day, but I found myself wondering “Do I actually feel closer to my kids now that I am spending sooooo much more time with them?”  I should right?  I should feel more a part of their lives, but the answer was a resounding “no” and on top of it, I actually think they like me less.  I mentioned this to Doug and he said “Of course they don’t like you as much and you don’t feel as close to them.  You are now the primary disciplinarian and rule maker/enforcer.”  First, got news for you hubby – I was that already, now I just have to do it for 24 hours a day rather than 4-5.  Regardless, it sucks.  Maybe I should just drive to the pool from now on so I don’t have any time to think things like this?
