The Day that Wasn't

Today I was going to have a day with little Lucy on her own. I had been looking forward to it for a while, but it wasn't to be. Lucy has a cough and although she has been here with worse colds and bug she wantedi to look after her. That is fair enough but I want to do that too and can do it too. She would have been fine and could have come for a few hours. It wasn' t like she had a temprature or anything. After all I have seen Emily and Catherine through worse who have lived with me for over nine years. I hope Lucy is alright and I at least get included when it comes to things that affect her life. I never wanted this for any of my children.
