Back to Work
In two days I am going back to work. The good news: my warehouse manager has agreed to give me limited part-time and only make me work Fridays and Saturdays, and if I want more days I can ask for them. The bad news: I will be away from my sweet girl for 4+ hours, 2 days a week. I am dreading it!! I am truly blessed to only have to work for those 2 days as long as we can afford it, but I wish I did not have to go to work. I grew up with a mom who stayed home, took care of the home, took us to school, made dinner every night and spent her time being a wonderful mom and wife. It is rare these days and I really wish I could do that. I know the kids are going to be just fine with Christian, but man I am going to miss my family. I have loved being here every day when the kids get home from school, asking them about their day and hearing about the lovely Jr. High stories :) I know I will still have those days throughout the week, and for that I am SO greatful! I also do not know how I will survive being away from Sophia. Oh my goodness I am going to cry the first day I leave her. If you think of it, please pray for this transition. I know that moms do it all the time, but wow this is gonna be TOUGH!! *sigh*

It definitely is tough. It's nice that they will be home with their dad though. I went back limited part time and the manager at the time made me work Saturday and Sunday. When it came to the cost for Saturday daycare it outweighed what I made. It's really lucky that you get to work when Christian can stay home. I cried my first day I had to go back, but it turned out okay. You'll do just fine :o).
ReplyDeleteIt's great that you can go back part time! I'm sure it's going to be hard (I can't even make myself think about going back at this point), but it's great that it's for short hours!
