Back To Work

I started back to work this week. I was really sad even though it is only part-time (20 hours). I have loved staying at home full time for the last fifteen weeks! It is funny because when Bella was a baby I really struggled with staying home all the time, and now with two I really seem to relish in it. I started to worry about going back to work even before I had Rowan. As soon as I had him I started counting down the days praying that the Lord with multiply my time, and that my break would seem longer than fifteen weeks. Even though I did not want to go back I felt a stronger inclination that I was suppose to finish my commitment. That is my heart for my children that they would always finish what they start or commit to (or at least try their hardest to). With that said, my first week back went the best it possibly could! Rowan did great at my mother-in-laws and Bella seemed super excited to go back to school (mother's day out). The teachers and kids at my school were great and made me really feel welcomed!Everything went so smooth and I have to say I know it was on account to all the prayers that were going out! Thank you friends. God is good. So now that we are back into the swing of things, we are waking up at 6 to get out the door by 7:20. Usually by the time we get up in the morning both kids are in bed with us. On Tuesday while I was getting dressed and periodically checking on the kiddos in bed... this is what I found.
All snuggled up. So sweet!

I know how hard returning to work can be when you have to leave your precious littles behind. Hang in there and just think, Spring Break isn't too far away!

Your littles are beautiful!

I know it had to be hard going back to work. I went back part time for about a month after Mason was born and it was so hard for me. Your kids are precious, you can see the love in the pictures.
