My Clavicle

I just noticed, I have nice Clavicle, Jack said that's just two bones. Ha..man...

Okay, I just finished my two weeks off with Emma. This was a trial period to see if 1: I could take care of her all day without losing my mind and 2: If I would actually enjoy it. Now that the trial is over, I have to say that I am a complete idiot! Why in the world did I not think that I could handle taking care of her? I mean what kind of mom am I that thinks she can't take care of her child full time?She's such a joy to be around although I do have to make sure that I have the next activity in the cue for her. To my defensive, I think I was channeling a week during maternity leave when Emma and I didn't go anywhere the entire week. That was a hard week and I was ready to lose my mind. But what I really needed was to get out of the house! Sometimes it takes my a while to figure things out.


Now the second part of the trial was if I would enjoy it and I don't want to gloat, but it was awesome! Imagine not having to rush to get everything done, laundry, errands, drycleaning, cleaning, etc. I was able to get it all done and not feel stressed or in the ever-never-ending rat race! Plus, I was able to make dinner at night and actually plan what we were having instead of picking the quickest thing in the cupboard. So, it's suffice to say the experiment was successful. Now, I just have to figure out when I'll be staying home with her full-time. The fall has always been my favorite time of year. Keep your fingers crossed for me!
