Tomorrow I will be letting my office know that I have accepted a new job. Everyone has kind of known that this was going to happen. Some are surpised that I lasted this long. I have decided to be a full time Mom.
For a long as I can remember I have always wanted kids. I have spoiled everyone elses kids and longed to be able to have someone call me Mom. On June 6 I got that wish.
Today after leaving Katie at daycare I was thinking about how much time I spend with her. It was not enough time. I felt like a weekend Mom. Yes I know that she is getting attention. Yes I know that it is good for her to be social. But she is now starting her "Firsts" and I don't want to miss that.
I have talked to the girls at work and they support me on this decision. They will miss me but as Grandma Velma said to me today "Life is short. Watch your kid grow up" I will be hard leaving them but I know that this is the right decision for me.

Congratulations on the new Full time (and I mean 24/7) job!
It really is the best thing to be able to spend as much time as you can with them while they are young. They grow up WAY to fast, and as teenagers they really don't want to be around mom and dad. :D Trust me on this one. 14 year olds are not happy to have family outings like 4 year olds are.
