🌅Be your own Sunshine in the gloomy days

This happened last week when my toddler fell ill (High fever above 101) and became extremely clingy post her fever recovery Now being a working Mom things were pretty hard ,after a real Tiring day at work I was welcomed with lots of cry ,tantrums and never ending clinginess 🙄 .There have been days in the last week where I have carried my 18months toddler in my arms consoling her , roaming here and there in my building ,trying new ways to make her laugh but eventually everything failed at last amd in utter frustation I snapped at her (since my body could not take it anymore ,dwelling here and there carrying 18 months toddler ) followed by lot of momguilt while sleeping and feeling a complete failure 😱. The very next day I decided to showcase the highest level of patience i can since snapping made the things really worse for both of us .I kept smiling (bearing all the clinginess ) ,making myself available (taking a day off from work ) completely for my toddler .Finally the phase passed and my toddler became stable only because I kept myself calm.
I learnt my lesson of Becoming my own sunshine by demonstrating patience and being calm not because I often heard quotes like " Babies need our utmost patience in tough days "and bla bla but because only being Calm and composed is gonna help practically ❤✔
