Isaac 1/23/10
As of Monday, February 1st, I am a working mom. It is a new phase of my life. It is probably going to be one of the longest phases of my life. It will also be a time filled with guilt. Ugh! In my case, I was looking forward to going back to work somewhat. I love my job - a fact that I truly realized when I was gone for 3 1/2 months. I missed my co-workers and patients. I missed getting out of the house once in a while. I missed adult conversations. But, one thing trumps all of those things - I miss my boys when I am at work. So, that will be the ever-present theme for the next 18 years.
Oh, well. That is life. I am working three days a week. I think it is going to be a perfect balance between my career and my boys. I'll keep you updated.
Isaac and Adrian were 12 weeks old yesterday. They are doing fantastic. I think Adrian is determined to pass Isaac up in the weight department. He has been eating a lot. They are constantly changing. They are smiling a lot more, holding their heads up more, talking and cooing more. It is getting more and more fun all of the time. They have already spent the night at Grandma Oleva's house twice. Life is good!
Tisha, I am so proud of you. Love you all! MOM
ReplyDeleteGosh, those boys are gorgeous!! Good luck with work. I have a friend who struggled with going back to work and she tried the full-time thing and 3-days a week thing, and definitely loved the latter. After all is said and done, you gotta do what you gotta do!
ReplyDeleteHope that things are still going well on the home front and work front. Part-time is definitely the way to go. Its hard to juggle everything but if anyone can do it...it's you. The boys are beautiful!
