Monday...

 

During the holidays it is so nice having short weeks.  Two days of work here; three days there…it was something I could get used to!  Last week was my first five day work week in quite some time.  I was dreading my alarm going off on Monday morning.  But believe it or not, it wasn’t bad and the week went by very quickly.   

Fast forward to today and I had a whole new set of reasons as to why I didn’t want to go to work.  The first of these being this…

 

If you are a working mom, you probably have to deal with this as well.  Some days are “good” days and other days are “bad.”  Plus, that can go either way or both ways if you have multiple children.  Today was a “bad” day for Tessa.  When she woke up, she ran into the bathroom and sat on the floor the entire time I was getting ready.  After a weekend with her mama, she didn’t want me to leave.  I was late for work today but spending a little extra time with her was what we both needed.  We read a couple books together and I put her hair into a big girl pony tail.  She was happy when I left and I felt better about leaving as well. 

Whether you are a stay at home mom, a part-time working mother, or a full-time working mother – our jobs are tough! We all have good days and bad days and finding the balance is a challenge every day. Here’s to hoping your Monday is a good one – no matter what you have to do to make that so!
