I have had the greatest gift of staying home with my sweet boy the past six weeks. I am having a hard time realizing that six weeks of his life have already passed and I must return to the real world and back to work next week.
It has been amazing to get to spend every moment of the day with Everett these past weeks. The time spent together bonding, getting to know each other is priceless. It has been overwhelming and exhausting at times but the most unbelievably precious time.
I ventured out for my first time away from Everett this week that was longer than 5 minutes. This included a date night with Drew for our anniversary and my six week check up with my doctor. Both of which he was left in the loving arms of his Mimi, Aunt Tammy, but both of which I was desperate to get back to him. I am not looking forward to the week ahead where I must leave him 3 days a week but know that I am not the only mother in America to have to do this, in fact I am very lucky to get to spend 2 days home with him. Nevertheless it will be an adjustment for both of us.
Everett I am insanely proud to be your Mom. You are truly the sweetest little boy in the world! Thank you for giving me grace as we ventured through the first weeks of your life together. And thank you for sleeping 7 hours last night! Amazing!!
