Maternity leave is over!

I am officially sitting at my desk at work right now and so sad. Today is my first day back, ho hum. It hasn't been horrible but I miss my baby girl and being in my pajamas all day long, lol! She's at home with daddy so that does make me feel a little bit better but of course he doesn't have mommy patience so I'm praying that he's not letting her cry it out. Though I know it's nothing wrong with that and crying won't kill her.

This is such a bummer. Why is maternity leave only 6 weeks? I took a few extra days but they weren't enough. Doesn't help that I'm in a country where maternity leave can last up to 2 years. America is so far behind but what are you gonna do?

Oh well, the silver lining is that this is only a half day and next week will be my only full week because the week after, I start clearing (Army speak for leaving a unit). At least I'll have half the summer with no work before I have to go back to 9 to 5 in the classroom.

I think I want to be a stay at home mommy.
