Working Mother's Guilt

The other day Violet said, "mommy when you are at work I miss you so so so much."  Then that statement was followed by a big hug.  She didn't say this when I dropped her of at daycare or even during a weekday.  It was just on some random Saturday morning and completely out of the blue. Seriously kid?  You just stabbed me and then turned the knife a few times.  I wonder if she learned these manipulation techniques at daycare because she's good. She's real good.
