Going back to work...

Going back to work... blog

My mom and sister have been making me feel really bad about going back to work and putting Kailey in a home daycare. Ryan and I went and spoke to the woman and she seems like a really nice woman. She was a pre-school teacher for 10 years prior to starting this in home daycare. She will have kailey and a 6 month old and a 1 year old and I guess 1-2 older kids that will be downstairs in her basement away from Kailey and the younger ones. My sister especially is making me feel like the worst mother. I'm already dreading the day of going back to work and dropping her off at daycare. Thankfully with Ryan's rotating schedule she will only have to go a couple times a week and some months there are only a few times a month she'll have to go, like for example...August she will only have to go a total of 7 days for the month!
Uggh. Just had to say I'm dreading it and not really appreciating how my mom and sis are making me feel.
:(
On a much happier note. I am so enjoying Kailey and every minute of being her mommy! I'll put up more pics soon, she is getting so big and changing everyday.

I heard a fellow teacher say that working made her a better mom - she really appreciated every moment with her kids when she was home and got her adult time too. Using a sitter is a good thing:) I sure love the kids that I watch and we have so much fun together! I hope all is going well!" -- ANGIESEDMAK

	"awww that going back to work is so tough. I can't imagine doing it so soon! We get a full year in canada and it is so helpful to feel like they are more independent. The one thing I would say is just try to be as observant as you can when you are there and trust your gut. If something doesn't feel right find someone else. There are alot of good child care providers out there! And I'm so sorry your sis/mom are making you feel that way - its super hard going back to work and they should be supp..." -- KASONSMOMMA82
