Happy Friday!! Congrats to all you working teachers that have successfully made it another Friday.
Relax and enjoy, you earned it.
My five for Friday will be very child/baby oriented as I am on mat leave...sorry if it's not too exciting.
My daycare provider fell and broke a few ribs on Wednesday so she asked that I keep my oldest daughter home with the baby and I the last 2 days. Even though it's been exhausting, I have learned that I can survive the day taking care of a newborn and a pre-schooler all by myself!
The trick has been an outing every day! We are going to try a new pre-school class at the library on Monday...maybe it'll become a weekly thing.
I love my ring sling. It has saved the day many a time in the past 2 months. Like right now as I type on the island in my kitchen while my baby sleeps...finally.
Bouncing a baby for hours on end is like an extreme exercise class. My calves and thighs are killing me.
No matter how tired or stressed I get, when my baby smiles or my daughter hugs me everything is right with the world again.
It's 8:04 and I plan to be in bed in the next 30 minutes or less!
3 Brilliant Teaching Thoughts:
Look at you Mama! Gettin it done! Have you thought about doing a post on how you prepared for maternity leave? We're going to start trying next year and that's one of my biggest fears!
Mrs. W- I live in Canada and our mat leave is quite different than yours. We get a full 12 months off that is partly subsidized by the government and the school board. I only had to leave a week's worth of plans for the teacher covering me and then they are responsible for the rest of the year!
Oh my! Yes that is very different! Enjoy every moment! :)
