Coming to terms...

I was emailing with my friend Amanda this morning about going back to work (she is a working mom herself...her mom watches her daughter a couple days a week and the other days she has a nanny/housekeeper who keeps her...they've known this woman for years...she cleans her mom's house, too). She gave me a little perspective, agreeing that leaving your baby is the hardest, most unnatural-feeling thing in the world, but also told me that it gets easier day by day and will start to feel normal eventually. And as long as you have confidence in the people taking care of her, it will be fine (I'm not sure I have that confidence yet...but hopefully we will gain it as she attends). We will see how this all goes...it will be a huge adjustment but I am sure we'll all find a way to make it work.

As I write this, my little angel is in her swing blowing bubbles. She's started drooling a lot more lately. Now that she's found her hands and sucks on them, I think she produces more saliva. YUM! But she's so adorable and fun. She is rarely ever fussy anymore (when I say that, I mean fussy for no reason...of course she still whines and cries when she's hungry or tired...that will probably go on for quite some time since that's how she communicates with us). Even when she is fussing, I can't help but smile sometimes because she's so cute even when she's doing that. As a matter of fact, I'm logging off so I can go grab her and play with her! Bye for now!!
