This weeks prompt for
A Dash of Sunny
is
Personally I love my solitude...
I would be quite happy sitting alone on a hill top
til I starved or froze to death.
But those with more troubled minds can spiral into darkness
and depression if left to their own devices for too long.
Now I am no "expert" in such matters...
but I do have a child with such issues...
especially on days like today.
It's his Birthday...
he should be the centre of attention, but he can't cope.
So I will tread carefully and eat cake
(and bake a pumpkin pie which he always says he likes)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY...?
*sings* "Happy Birthday to You!..."
"no"
"Happy Birthday toooo You!"
"NO"
*says quietly* "happy birthday dear Zaaaa.....aaaac..."
"Shut UP!"
*whispers* "happy birthday to you....."
Well I'm still glad you were born!
Cos 5 minutes later...

The joys of motherhood come at a price
which I gladly pay daily.
