Here's the thing... I used to like the work life. Being productive, staying busy and doing the normal work life stuff. But after having a baby, all I want to do now is be a mom! The company I worked for closed the doors the week I gave birth. That was actually a blessing in disguise! I wasn't happy where I was at and had no potential of moving up. Plus, that gave me 2 months at home with my sweet little boy instead of a lousy 3 weeks. But, reality set in and I realized that we really couldn't survive by Billy working and me just being Mom of the year... so I got a job.
Today was my 2nd day. And since I am able to type this, that means I'm not crying! Yesterday, on the other hand, I was an emotional wreck. Leaving the baby all day was a lot harder than I thought.
The job seems great. Wonderful CEO of the company and all the girls that I work with seem great too. I'm excited to be a part of this growing company but continue to pray for strength and energy.
Maybe someday Billy will bring in the big bucks and I can just be a mom and wife. Until then... duty calls.
Reminding myself of this: The will of God will never take you where the grace of God will not protect you.
I'll leave you with this sweet face :)
Wow, a lot has changed! Can't believe the company you worked for closed. But happy you were able to find another job. I can totally relate about how hard it is to go back to work. It gets better, but it's never easy. That's the thing about being a mom that no one can warn you about. It's a deep, built in desire to always do the best for your baby.
