Coming to an end...

My medical leave is coming to an end.

It has been a blessing again to be at home.

I have always every couple years had a little

reprieve from my work due to maternity leaves

and now this time from a surgery.

I enjoy being at home...sometimes too much.

I tend to isolate myself...stick close to my little ones

because they love me no matter what..

they don't care if I am a chubby, messy haired, or quiet that day.

They come to me and give me daily if not hourly hugs.

I will miss that.  Even though I only work part time..

I still have to leave home.

I do love my work..and once I am there I am fine...

but...I like my home!

So as it comes to an end...back to the work routine I will go.

There has been lots of "ends" in this experience.

An end to birthing babies...an end to being at home for days upon days.  

I have handled this change for the most part pretty well.

I still have some "grey" days and they do come and go and at times 

can linger...but as the sun starts to shine the next day I pick up my head off

my pillow and try to put one foot in front of the other and look

at what I have and be thankful and try not to dwell on the "end" 

of things.

So here is to new days....new beginnings...and a whole lot of faith along the way!!
