On To Week #2

Here it is Sunday already! I had forgotten how fast the weekends go by when I was at home on maternity leave. So, back to work tomorrow. I have survived my first week and here I am ready to face week #2!

My first week just felt like a blur. You know, like one of those dreams that you keep hoping will come to an end, but it doesn't... It really wasn't that bad, but I have to admit, that my mind and my heart were at home most of the time and not really on my job. I'm sure that once I get back into the swing of things, everything will be alright.

I do miss my kids.... I miss getting them ready in the morning and taking them to the bus, I miss going for walks to check the mail with Selena, I miss feeding her lunch and going to get the kids off the bus in the afternoon. I really miss the little naps that Selena and I would have and notice that I get a little drowsy at work right around 1:30pm. I think my body is still needing that nap!!!

Too bad they wouldn't extend paid maternity/parental leave to 18 months... but then I'd wish for 2 years, geez, what the heck, they should pay Moms and Dads to stay at home until the child starts school. Wouldn't that be nice?
