September?!

I'm not sure where the days, weeks, and months have gone. When I started my maternity leave on April 1st, September was a long way off, but it's not anymore! Next week marks the start of another school year. I will be spending my days with 40 preschoolers - no, not all at once! The boys get to stay at home with a nanny 2 days a week and go to a neighbors house on the other 2 days. (I will admit to being quite jealous of Andrew - he has Fridays off so he gets to be home with them then.) I am excited to go back to teaching, but you can bet that when I get home from work I will be a baby hog!

Enjoy each day!

Anika.....Ezra and Ashton are just absolutely precious!!! I'm working with a teacher who just had her baby boy in May. She's already told me to expect lots of tears tomorrow (our first day back) as she is not going to be good with leaving him. I think you have every right to be a "baby hog" when you get home! I hope you have a fantastic preschool year!

Aren't they gorgeous! You'll miss them but it will be all the sweeter when you get home. Hope your first day goes well.

It feels like I was just flying home in April to meet the boys!! Time sure does go by quickly!! Those kids are sure lucky to have you as a teacher just like those boys are lucky to have you as a momma! It is bittersweet!!! Love you!!

The boys're lookin' good! I bet you'll secretly enjoy being back to teaching and interacting with your colleagues. And you'll be an even better mommy because when you're home you'll appreciate every SECOND with them! :) Have a great start to your year!
