I love all my girls but sometimes they are stressful, my special girl…………Jessica always tells me if I don’t want to do something I should just say so. So today when she rings and asks if I can watch Leo for a few hours this afternoon, for no reason other than he said he wanted to come to nanna’s place for a while, I didn’t feel like having him here so I said no but she went on and on till I said yes. So he was here for 3hrs while his mum went home to do nothing………….is it any wonder that I feel like I really can’t say no. When I do it makes no difference and I get talked into changing my mind and saying yes.

I can understand how you get tugged and pulled, Joanne. I feel that myself sometimes but I’m learning to value my needs and what I want too.
It’s been hard for me to do but I feel better for it. We give permission to how others treat us and how we treat ourselves.
Yeah I try so hard to stand by my first answer but it hard when the child goes on and on and on
Yeah, those situations can be real difficult — takes time to sort it all out.
You are great nana and mother! I wish my husband and I had more free time but we don’t have anyone that can watch our kids very often.
Thank you I do love having the grandkids most of the time
It must be especially hard when your daughter is asking and your grandson is part of the conversation. I have that in front of me, not quite yet!
Yes it is hard when Leo or Blain are the ones doing the asking
