Oh well...
I had just finished a nice eloquent post on Sunday night about my maternity leave and was putting in pictures when cyberspace ate half of it. Then the whole rest of it. Oh well, maybe I'll try again this weekend... For now a few random thoughts on returning to work:
1. It really IS easier to go to work than take care of two nursing twins (except for the missing your kids part). Really. Not that its where I'd choose to be (at work that is) but, WOW, it' s easier...
2. It's wonderful to receive big giant hugs from one of your adorable five-year-old patients who missed you and kept asking the fill in physical therapist when you were coming back.
3. Mommy radar is hard to turn off at night. After phasing out 3 a.m. pumping sessions about a month ago, one of these nights I keep thinking I'll get a full nights sleep without waking up and won't hear them wake up even with my door shut and the monitor in the other room. Someday...
4. Yah, Daddy is finding time to take cute videos and pictures for me too. Plus, I think he might appreciate my hard work a bit more...(not that he already didn't).
5. I'm secretly happy when they are so excited to see me after work, I throw off the nap schedule and they fight to stay awake because I'm there. This used to happen with daddy on the weekends....
