I really thought that it would be easier to get back to school. The school part has been ok, it's been the leaving Eli that has nearly killed me! Monday night I cried for hours and held Eli every second I could (poor Kelly didn't get any baby time). Tuesday morning I cried as we got ready and left. Tuesday after leaving him with our wonderful sitter, I cried. Seeing the trend? By Tuesday afternoon I swore I would never take him to a sitter again! (Yes, I was ready to call my principal and quit right then and there). After some good baby time and a calming blessing from my husband, I am now in a very different state of mind.
I am so grateful that the Lord has provided a sweet and loving woman who is able to watch my baby while I am doing the job I love so much. I am grateful my sitter is a grandma who will love my baby like he deserves to be loved. I am grateful that she lives 2 minutes from the school so I can go visit at lunch. I am grateful the Lord has blessed me with a son who loves life and loves people. It's amazing what a couple of days and the Spirit can do for your state of mind.
