I do not remember being this sad when I had to go back to work after I had RJ. With KA, my first, I think I was in shock that I had to leave her with someone...and so I just trucked on through it and was thankful that we had a fabulous mom looking after her that was up at school almost as much as I was...so I could go down to the workroom anytime I wanted and see her. Then with RJ, I was probably honestly "babied out" by the time I had to go back to work, plus we were leaving the girls with my mom...so it was nowhere near as difficult. But Mr. Cole? He's going to be a tough one. While I will still be leaving the kiddos with Mom...which, she and Dad are probably honestly the biggest blessings in my life...I am already SO SAD to think about going back to work! I'm thinking maybe because I know he is probably our last baby...so this is it...this is the last time I'll get to completely focus on being a mommy to a little baby...does that make sense? Plus, I know he is about to start reaching all of those developmetal milestones which I will rpobably miss...but again, at least he will be with Mom. And...I think I'm raising a Momma's Boy...sorry future wife! It's not intentional! I just can't help myself!! I know I'll never get this time back, and that honestly just kills me. So...I will vow not to be sad and mopey this last week on leave...I will enjoy my time with my new little guy and his amazing big sisters while I can!
Halloween!
