Gettin' Back in the Swing...

I started dreading today last Tuesday on my way to the park. I looked in the rear view mirror at Carly in her seat and realized that my break was not going to last forever. I have realized that I am very fortunate to be able to be home with her in the early afternoons and every weekend...plus SUMMER, bit it is still hard to go back to work after spending such a fun-filled week with her. I have to say that this morning wasn't as bad as I anticipated. I had a difficult time getting Carly out the door this morning. She was perfectly happy with cuddling on the couch with me but when she realized we were getting ready to leave she started to fuss and did not want to put on her jacket. But when we got to daycare she went to her teacher and seemed OK...not overly happy, but she didn't cry. It was also nice to see my students and friends at work. The kids seemed to have a nice break and came back ready to get back into the routine. Plus, it was a beautiful day and we managed have lunch outside and squeeze in two recesses! The day went by quickly and I got to come home and play in the yard with Carly. Then managed to squeeze in some extra cuddle time before she went to bed. Have I mentioned that i love this girl?!
