For the past month, I’ve been working 3 days per week. Mondays and Wednesdays are my days with the
boys. Just mommy, W, and Baby S. June 8, I return to full time status. And it’s breaking my heart. For some reason, it really hit me yesterday
that our park outings, walks, play time, Starbucks drive thru trips, etc., etc. were coming to an end. I’m not sure what it was about yesterday –
maybe because the weather was finally nice (aside from a few rain showers) and
the boys were good for the most part. I
know we’ll still have fun on the weekends, but it won’t be the same.
W will likely start preschool in the fall and I hope to be
able to drop him off or maybe I can work from home one day a week…
These arrangements will help, but it surely won’t be the
same as maternity leave. And it’s not
lost on me that I’ll never have another extended period home with the
boys. That hurts.
