a lot has changed since i became a mom. i’m a different person.
i no longer shop for designer clothes. i have no desire to go ‘out’ till 2:00 am like i used to. i look both ways twice before pulling out in traffic. i go the speed limit. i wear sunscreen. i take vitamins. i pray more often. i eat better.
i know their needs come before mine. dealing with claire’s severe colic and acid reflux is a full time job (not that a newborn is low maintenance, right?) and caroline just wants to be with us all time. these girls are the center of every thought. their health and happiness is priority one. for myself and chris.
i was supposed to go back to work today. i didn’t go. i called my boss last week and told him i needed to put my family’s needs first. there was no way i could leave claire with someone else…not with all she has going on. i just was not ready to leave her. he was very understanding…but you know what happened next.
i am home with my girls. unemployed…and surprisingly ok with it.
i guess it’s a good thing i am not into those designer jeans anymore, huh?
