I can't believe that Devon is already 11 weeks old. It seems like yesterday that I was thinking I would be pregnant forever. I have to go back to work this Sunday, and I am very sad. I love being home with the boys everyday, and my whole family on the weekends. I love being able to goof around with Colby more than just a few hours each evening. I will miss this very much. The funny thing is, we are very lucky that I am able to work every weekend. As much as I sacrifice every weekend that I go to work, we gain so much more every day that I get to be home during the week. I will be working "extra" one day during the week to help us pay off our debt, and I am still blessed to be home as much as I am.
I guess the bottom line is that, if I had made better choices with my money throughout the years, I would be able to stay home all but a couple of days a month. It is the grace of God that has allowed me a job that I can work and still be a stay at home mom. I will try to remember that when I have to be away from my wonderful husband, my new baby, my crazy toddler, and my hormonal teenager for a whole weekend.

Jo, I'll pray for you this weekend. I know how hard it is to go back. But I know all of you will adjust just fine. Love ya.
Good luck, I'll be thinking about you. You can do it and before you know it, you'll be right back into the swing of things.
