I am soon hanging up my SAHM hat.  I have to say that I am jumping out of my skin with excitement to get back to the world of work.  I start on Monday and it can’t come soon enough as I really am at my wits end at home with the kids.  I love my kids.  I love that I was able to stay home with them for these past three years but I can’t do it another week without losing my mind and my kids deserve a mom who isn’t crabby at them all the time because I have to remind them 15 times to get dressed or to listen to me, to not hit your sister/brother,  etc.  I am relishing the fact that I get to get dressed like a professional and interact with other academics for the good of children. 

I have spent the last two weeks taking them to lots of fun places and having a good overall time with them.  But they need more socialization and they love being around other kids.  They need more than I have energy to give them all day and night long.  I truly believe they will be happy kids in daycare four days a week and then they will get all of me when they are home. 

We had a great time this past weekend in Beverly Shores and with my brother and his partner.  It was nice–long but nice.  I’ll post some pictures soon.  Off to enjoy a few more days of SAHMhood before re-entering the workforce.
