I’m officially back to work.
Getting many kind e-mails from viewers made my first day a bit easier (thank you again, by the way) but I have to admit, returning to my other full time job is a bit bitter sweet. As hard as it was to get up at 2 a.m. and get out of my pajamas and into a suit, as opposed to getting up for a feeding, it was nice to not feel like I was waking up on Groundhog’s Day again. This was definitely a far cry from the last twelve weeks of caring for a newborn and a toddler.
At the same time, I miss my little one terribly. I’ve only been a mom for 23 months. With my oldest, I learned the truth in what so many people say—- they grow up so fast. They really do. I know my newborn will grow just as fast—he already is—and I think that’s what makes returning to work so hard. I don’t want to miss one single change, one milestone.
It’s a balance I know I will strike soon, at least I hope. In the meantime, I’m back to doing something else I love.
Thank you for welcoming me back.
