Day 2
I survived yesterday.
Today so far has been a little harder, since it’s the first day we took Miles to his care provider. I must emphasize that Jessa is wonderful—she’s a former preschool teacher who quit her job to stay home with her little boy, who is just a month older than Miles. I am not nervous about the quality of care he’ll receive.
He got startled by their cat, who came over to sniff him. Miles’s only experience with cats is at Aunt Jackie’s house with Norman, who would rather just be left alone, so we encourge that. Jessa’s cat seems pretty friendly. Denny and I are both allergic, so I guess we’ll find out if Miles is.
I teared up a little in the car (and of course I didn’t have any Kleenexes), but actually the drive from Jessa’s house to the office was kind of nice, because I got 10 minutes of uninterrupted time to talk to Denny. That almost never happens anymore.
In other good news, I got a really restful night’s sleep. I went to bed early, as I was pretty tired, and Miles had a good night. It’s had a positive influence on my general attitude.

Hard to dress up again for “business mode” vs. “mommy mode”? I think I’d get used to the relaxed dress code. 🙂
Your hair is growing on me.
Ha! I’ve always wanted to say that.
