Oh goodness! I can't believe how fast my maternity leave has flown! I go back to work in two weeks - I can't believe it! I'm glad that I'm only working part-time. I can't imagine the transition from being home full-time to working full-time. I will miss the alone time that I've had with Greyson though. He is such a sweet baby and I love having quiet play time with him on the days that Madelyn is at school. When Madelyn is here, it is like a tornado going through! It is wonderful seeing how well she is getting along with her brother. I don't think she is jealous of him at all. I think she may be jealous of the one-on-one attention Greyson gets at eating time, but in general she is handling having a little brother VERY well. And I think that we, the parents, are handling having two kids fairly well too. Thankfully, Ben is a hands-on Dad. I don't think I could do it otherwise.
Today, Ben has his first class of the quarter. He is taking two classes this quarter so it could be a rough one. Hopefully not. Graciously, his classes are in the afternoons rather than in the evenings so he may go in a little early and come home a little late some days to make up hours at work but he won't be gone any evenings. That is good! I could take care of the kids by myself, but I'm glad that I don't have to. Ben will, of course, have homework that he will need to get done but he is pretty good about working on that after Madelyn goes to bed. He only has three more classes left - 2 this quarter and 1 next quarter. Then he graduates on June 2nd! I'm so excited for him!
