'Stay at home' didn't describe
the type of mother I was
.
I was the woman who took
her newborn to the beach
when she was four days
old. We went to restaurants,
visited my relatives, and ate
whatever I had packed at
various parks in the area.
One day I thought that the
girls and I would benefit
from a trip to the
zoo
. It
was dreadfully hot that day.
Both girls were languid,
I blamed the heat and
purchased a popsicle that
the three of us shared.
We listened to
Vivaldi
on
the way home. It was a
good trip I thought to
myself as I pulled into the drive.
Before unpacking the girls
I noticed one was feverish
and the other had signs of
an ear infection. Back to
the pediatrician we went,
it seemed like we had just been
there, double ear infections for
both girls. More antibiotics,
eye drops for the one whose baby blues
were now
bright burning red
.
Stay at home mother?
Working mom
?
"I miss Daddy!" She wailed.
I was up late that night, discreet
disposal of a corpse takes time.
