It is hard to put into words how hard it is to leave your child when you go back to work after 12 weeks of maternity leave.
Yesterday was not so bad. Braden and I loaded up all of Caleb's stuff and drove him to his Day School. We took our time dropping him off and saying goodbye. When we left he was swinging and happy as could be. I took my lunch break off to visit him yesterday and he was being so good just bouncing in a little bouncy chair. When I picked Caleb up yesterday he had a good report card with a "Great 1st Day" comment. I was a proud mommy.
But today was worse than yesterday. I could not give Caleb enough kisses and hugs. I wanted to stay and play with him all day long. But, that can't happen and now I am at work and missing him like crazy. I know that this transition is harder on me than it is on him. So, please pray for my strength to go to work every day and work hard so that I can go and pick up my sweet baby boy each evening.
I will post more pictures soon.
