Three months is an exciting milestone! It means Delaney spends more of her days with her eyes open, and it also means that I have one last week at home before returning to work. There are definitely some things I will miss about maternity leave, and I hope to hold on to some of the things I've learned:
- Not multitasking. Doing exactly one thing at a time, like holding Delaney, and enjoying it.
- Instead of sitting on the couch watching television, sitting on the floor for playtime or sitting in the rocking chair looking out the window.
- Being here when Sidney gets home from school to spend time with him and talk about his day.
- Spending the entire day in cozy pj's.
- Tackling any dinner and dessert recipe that sounds good, no matter how many steps and ingredients.
- Taking afternoon naps all cuddled up together, and not setting an alarm to wake.
- Sneaking in an afternoon trip to the gym for a workout class (thanks, Jeremy and Nana!)
- Accepting, and sometimes even asking, for help from (kind) strangers.
