I went back to work the Monday before Thanksgiving and was so grateful I chose the week that I did. It was only a two day work week and the kiddos weren’t fully “there” mentally (and neither was I due to other obvious reasons) knowing they had Wednesday-Friday off!
I was however, officially a crazy person! I left my child in east Texas,
at my mom’s home…until Wednesday! What was I thinking! Like I did not get off work and go see here,
I did not see my child at all from Sunday-Wednesday afternoon! I will say, it was a good call, as I was able
to come back and not feel rushed to leave work…and I got all my tears out on
Sunday.
My classes were super happy to have me back and I even got a
round of applause first period, which made getting through my day that much
easier!
The only hiccup I had was I forgot the caps that go to the
bottles I pump my milk into…nothing some Ziploc bags couldn’t handle…other than
that all went well!
I made a fun slideshow with pictures of Scarlett along with some
random fun facts for the kids to read and see what Scarlett and I had been up
to the last several weeks…They enjoyed it!
so bitter-sweet! hope it's gotten easier! only 5 more days till christmas break! woo-hoo! let the countdown begin :)
