Baby Blues
I knew when I started the semester it would be an extremely challenging one for me. Having a baby in the middle of your second to last semester in grad school is what some would consider crazy, but I figured I could knock out two classes while I was home on maternity leave. Yes, they are two challenging classes – Capstone and Change Strategies, but I thought I should be able to give them plenty of attention while I didn’t have to worry about work. Right??!
Then I met Devin Michael… My beautiful baby boy was born on February 4th. The last week and a half have flown by like a dream, and I’ve been lucky enough to stay home concentrating on nothing but him (and getting myself healed!) But thoughts of my impending return to school have been creeping in. How in the world am I going to get any work done with this screaming baby?! This seems so much harder than when my daughter was born 12 years ago…
I plan to return to school the week of the 16th (if all goes well). Until then, I am going to put school out of my mind except for doing some reading in Marquardt and Burke so I don’t fall too far behind. I just figured I’d post this quick update for the curious!
