Last Day :-(

Well it's official. After today my maternity leave is over and I am going back to work. I am a mix of happy and sad. I swear, if I could just leave her in her car seat at my desk we could work together! It helps that other moms (Adrienne!) have gone back to work and say they are actually enjoying a little free time away. I suppose we'll see how I do.
The Townleys are all a little smoked this morning after a loooong, cranky night last night. Rob gets the super-Dad award for being up with Anna from 1-3:30am rubbing her back/ feeding/ speaking softly to her all while she screamed in his face. (I was lying in bed next to them with a pillow over my head - not that it helped). When she woke up an hour later it was my turn. Of course now that the sun is coming up, she's sleeping peacefully in her swing. Yep. I'm still gonna miss her.

Yeah it will be rough in the beginning but when you have a bad day you have something to look forward to..When I see Shyann's smile everytime I pick her up it just puts me in a better mood!!

I echo what everyone says. I also keep telling myself: "I was in daycare and I don't even remember it!" =0)

Mondays are still hard, though.

There's also no reason to feel guilty! (This coming from the Queen of Guilt myself). I just know I'm the type of person that needs to get out of the house/work/interact with big people.
