Well, tomorrow I officially start back to work. I'll be busy in the classroom. I went in on Saturday to work in the classroom, get things ready. Aaron and the kids came along. Aaron had to practice his sermon for Wednesday night and Isaac and Hannah watched a movie in the nursery. Eli decided not to sleep... at all. It took me 4 hours to get done what I can usually do in about 45 minutes. This is not going to be easy. I left yesterday feeling more than a little bit overwhelmed. And since Eli didn't sleep he was overtired and extremely fussy when we finally got home. I am praying the week is easier than this weekend. Yuck. If we lived in Pullman it would be so much easier. My job involves so much that has to be done on site. It's not work that can be done at home. I REALLY WANT TO MOVE.
To add to my feeling of being overwhelmed, Aaron will be gone for 3 days at the end of next week. I just can't think about it right now or I might scream. Maybe by then I will have adjusted to the new schedule and way of things and be just fine. I'm praying that is the case.
It has just been an emotional couple of days... getting use to someone else caring for Eli in the mornings, figuring out a new time management system, taking the step to never have children again, lack of sleep, and two children testing boundaries at every corner. I need strength and endurance for this race.
In other news, we have some daffodils just about ready to bloom! Spring is here! I can't wait to see those beautiful yellow flowers blooming against our house. I love it! Hannah is just about ready to lose her third tooth... she talks about it about 100 times a day. She can't wait for it to fall out. Isaac is very happy that I will again be his teacher. Maybe he will be back to his nice self (he's been a major stinker). Eli is sleeping great today, which means he will sleep great tonight. He is grinning and rolling over like it's an Olympic sport. My hormonal headaches are becoming fewer, which is great. Aaron gets to preach on Wednesday night at the Lenten service... he is very excited.
And that's that!
