I survived.

As I mentioned sometime last week, I was facing the end of my maternity leave. It came and went. And I survived. It was actually less horrible than I thought. There are several reasons for this. One is that my Mom is home with Owen now. I couldn't ask for a more reassuring person to leave my son with than the women who raised me. So that gives me peace of mind. Another reason is that today is Friday...and I am not at work! Jeremy and I decided that if work agreed, I would go to 32 hours a week. YAY! Now my Wednesday is like Thursday and my thursday is like Friday. And I have one full day a week to spend with my little man!! It's amazing to me what a difference that made in getting through the week. Yet another reason? I had some fun quality time with Owen every night when I got home. And we had fun things to do to keep me distracted from thinking about being away the whole next day! So...in looking back on the week...the best I can say...is for now, I survived. I have to work, so I have to be away from our boy. But I'll take 4 days a week with Grandma PJ watching over him. It beats other alternatives. So in our lives right now God provides.
