Tomorrow I go back to work after 12 weeks.

Its a different group than when I left, my old kids graduated. And even though I'm in the same room, I'll have a different co-teacher.

I'm going to go from a house with no television and an infant who sleeps half the day, to the clamor of 20 three and four year olds.

Here's hoping I don't run away screaming by Art Time. Or crying because I miss my baby .

Hopefully it will be a great day! I'm sure you are dreading it but I bet it will be less difficult than all the scenarios running through your head right now (well if you're a worrier like me )!

Is your DD going to be in at your center?

Working after maternity leave is hard. I only had 2 weeks off and I nearly cried so I can't imagine how sad it is to have to work again after 12.
I'll be thinking of you today. Good luck!

Good luck, Hunni! Is your baby going to be at your center so you can visit during breaks?

Aww! I have done that 2x and it stinks! But, once you get back into the groove you'll be fine!

I think those 20 3 and 4 year olds are going to make your days fly by! You won't even have time to look at the clock and hopefully if your baby is at the same place as you you are able to visit on your breaks or maybe sneak a little time in during nap time. Maybe you can even coordinate bottles with your breaks?

Well...lets see

•Baby peed on the carpet this morning
•I had to pick up my WIC before work (DD is on a special formula)
•There was a ten mile backup due to bridge construction that started at the onramp from my street.
•I ran into an accident and more road work trying to take alternate routes.
•I was fifteen minutes late for work.
•My coworker was off today, leaving a dizzy sub in her place, who knew nothing despite the fact that she is the sub every Monday.
•My new kids are SO immature.
•The dizzy sub realizes she should have taken lunch 30 minutes ago, therefore going to lunch late and causing me to only get 30 minutes for lunch instead of an hour.
•Several kids in the class seriously need their own adult. I had to take on down off the table at least 30 times.
•Feminine products failed.

But all in all, it wasn't a bad day.

There were many, many choice words on the way to work and a few in the bathroom during my mini-lunch

rofl!

Glad you can weather it with a smile though. And of course, it's hard to be grumpy when you have a small snuggle bug to cuddle with!
