Working 9-5

On Wednesday, September 1, I went back to work full-time at Bayer. I had a lot of anxiety about going back to work, managing the household, spending quality time with my husband and the boys, and keeping my sanity through it all. I have now been back to work about a month and things are going quite well. There are definitely moments I miss the boys and wish I had more time with them. There are other days I am thankful to have my job and have some adult interaction. Overall, I am blessed to have a good job with a great company. Brad and I feel that this is the right thing for our family right now and hopefully we will continue to feel that way about our decision.

The boys started going to a new daycare and they are doing so well! LP walked into the house the first day and went right to the toys. He didn't cry at all when I left. There are two other boys there that are about the same age as him and he loves playing with them. Whenever I ask him about daycare he says two words, "ball" and "no-no." It makes me laugh every time!

We are blessed to have such a great place to bring the boys and two great jobs in these hard economic times. It is our prayer that we continue to do what is right for our family and that we embrace all the moments we have together.
