Say It Isn't So!

This is what Will did when I went in to get him up this morning. I had my camera with me because I was about to pack it to take to school, so I snapped some shots of him. This looks like he is saying, "AAAAAH Don't go Mommy!!!!" or "AAAAAHH It couldn't be time to get up." Either way I thought it was hysterical and definitely gave me a laugh before my first day of school with kids. I.am.exhausted! There are no other words. I saw my child a combined total of one hour today. So incredibly sad! But I know all days won't be this way-just right at the beginning. Today we had open house so that is why I was hardly home. I came in just in time for Will to go to bed. John had him bathed and they were reading Brown Bear when I walked in. Such a precious sight. I gave him his bottle and rocked him to sleep which I never do. I just wanted to cuddle up with him for a few minutes. Okay, I rocked him for almost an hour. I just wanted to make sure he knew I was there. It felt easier for some reason going back in March after being on maternity leave. Maybe it was because he didn't do anything but sleep. His personality hadn't really come out yet. Now he is so fun and smiles and laughs and plays all the time so it is hard knowing that a majority of his day is spent without me. John tried to make me feel better by reminding me that he sleep from 9-11 and again from 1-3 so he is asleep about half of the time I am gone. I am off to bed. Is it the weekend yet?
