Three days later I am dying to get out of yoga pants and a ponytail.
I never expected to like staying home. And I didn't...at first. My maternity leave was hectic. No more than three hours of sleep in a row for four months makes a Momma crazy. When I went back to teaching in January it was wonderfully terrible. I couldn't help but wonder if getting my final pink slip in June was the universe trying to tell me something, again.
This second chance at staying at home with Leila has been not-even-close to perfect, but it has changed me. Changed how I picture myself, how I picture our future.
I like what I see.
Cherish the time you have with her. She is such a sweetie and she is blessed to have a mama like you at home with her!
ReplyDeleteYou can have any life you want, you just have to have the drive to make it happen. Sometimes it will be hard, but you just have to stay focused on what's really important to you! You know you have friends to help!
ReplyDeleteSometimes I think I'd be a better mom if I worked, but I'm grateful I can stay at home right now too. What an adorable little girl you have to stay home with. :)
