A Day in the Life of a Working Mother



To my loyal blogger audience,


The reason for no recent posts is my return to work from maternity leave. We are all okay, except for one sick (and therefore, needy) toddler. I am more tired and overwhelmed than I imagined. I'm still adjusting to the "juggling act" of a working mother...and desperately looking for some "me" time, which right now could be used in the form of sleep. The highlight of my work day is that I get to finish an entire cup of coffee at once. The downer is that I must leave these precious faces at home.


Thank you to those of you who have been thinking of me...and thank you MOM for making going to work possible for me.

He is so cute. Nice shoes Lily, I think she must have them almost worn out by now!

Here's hoping that it gets a little easier each day! Thank goodness our children all have great grandparents to watch them while we work!

Only a few weeks til Spring Break! You can do it! Just keep thinking ahead to the summer, too. It will be here in no time! I can't wait to be able to spend time with you and the kids this summer. We'll have lots of fun.

Nice dress, Lily! Can Sophie borrow it sometime?
