Back to Work

Tomorrow is my first day back to work after my maternity leave. I'm really going to miss this little face.

I'm feeling a lot of different emotions. First, I'm really sad that I have to leave Amora. Second, I'm scared of how she's going to do without me. She's not the easiest baby and doesn't care for bottles. I'm also reassured though because I know this is the best thing for my family. We need to have money to eat and live, and I need to work to accomplish that. My job also gives health insurance and retirement benefits. But in spite of my worries, a small part of me is excited. I love my job and feel like I can make a difference in my students lives. I love my job as a mommy more though. But I know Amora will be in good hands with her daddy.

She just better not do anything cute without me! Wish me luck. It'll definitely be a trial for our little family.

On another note, we made an offer on a house on Friday. It needs a lot of work, and we're not sure how the inspection will go, but it's a great deal and much closer to my work. Hopefully all goes well. Here's a picture of the house:
