November challenge Day 4
I’m grateful for my wife’s emotional labour with:
  1. Setting up a play date at our house for our son because she knew he was feeling left out not being invited to another friend’s sleepover,
  2. Talking with me about how she would need to be away from the house for a good chunk of the play date because she knew the chaos would be too much overstimulation for her.
  3. Chatting with my son about including his little sister an hour before his play date because she knew otherwise our daughter would be left out and upset.
  4. Feeling guilt that our daughter always gets her older brother’s hand-me-down winter gear and working out what new items to buy her to preserve her sense of identity.
