Well, the time has come. I have to return to work after 12 amazing weeks with the most beautiful, precious baby girl (and I'm not partial ;-)). How I choose to deal with this separation is a battle that I must wage between my rational and irrational self. The rational side of me knows that she is in VERY good hands. She will be loved unconditionally by two of the best people I know. The irrational side just wants to be near her all of the time. While I have been mentally preparing myself for this day for a long time (even before I was pregnant), nothing can really prepare you for the connection that you feel with your child. It's pretty much the most amazing, awe-inspiring relationship. She needs me and I need her. What a beautiful thing.
Enough of the heavy. On a positive note, I get to spend more time with my sister and my friends at work. If you have to work, it's nice to have your sister a few offices down the hall, along with a great group of wonderful friends to support you! I'm also lucky to work on an account with great clients who just so happen to office in Plano -- which on a good day, gets me that much closer to my girl!
Wish us luck :)
P.S. Check out Caroline's snazzy shoes from her aunt Heather! Still a little big. We can't wait to wear them one day!!
