If you haven’t figured it out yet, I am a high school science teacher. Which means that I have the summers off. It is a wonderful break and the time I get to spend with Eyan is amazing. As with all things, they must come to an end. So here we sit, mid-August and I am back at work. My new job is pretty good. I am still very much a newbie and learning how everything works. Today I met most of my students and they are very polite. However, this week has been a whole different world for me.
I think all working mom’s have to deal with the careful balance of work and family. I would like to consider myself a pretty balanced mommy. I truly believe that my new job will aid in my ability to keep work at work so that I can dedicate my home time to my family. So this week Eyan spent a lot of time with my mom and Jen (Eyan’s babysitter). I always send a camera so that when he is being the extra special kid he is, they can capture it on camera. Enjoy the view from a working mom!
Lunch!
This is how my mom dresses Eyan when I tell her not to let him play in the dirt in his clothes.

Eyan found a girlfriend
So cute!
After a week of no family time, Mommy and Daddy took Eyan to get some Fish
He was SO excited!
He also got this vacuum to terrorize the dogs…best night ever!
I love the people that take care of Eyan. My mom is incredible and she picks him up every morning. Sometimes she keeps him for a few hours, sometimes she takes him directly to Jen’s. Jen is amazing. She loves Eyan like her own. He loves her just as much. I couldn’t be more blessed to have her take care of Eyan. They make the balance of work and family so easy!
