A Sad List

As the "one-month until I go back to work" mark passed, I am thinking more and more about how on earth I am going to cope with not seeing my little baby girl all day. So I'm starting a couple of lists.

Reasons I don't want to go back to work:
-I am really enjoying my routine of gym, yoga, Day One, Kaiser
-I love seeing her wake up from every single nap
-I love breastfeeding her
-I love wearing workout clothes all day
-I love being woken up by her goo'ing and gaa'ing rather than an alarm
-I love watching movies, playing online games, and checking Facebook every 10 minutes
-I love seeing Luke so much
-I love not missing anything Addy does
-I love only having to think about baby stuff
-I love having the energy to do things like vacuum and clean toilets
-I am finally starting to feel like a mommy
-I am going to be jealous of Luke again, but for more reasons now

Reasons I want to go back to work:
-Money/benefits
-To not feel lazy
-The district needs me (I think)
-I miss my colleagues
-Remembering how to use my brain for something other than baby
-It will be good for Addy to be with other kids
