It's the Little Things - Like Realizing She's a Big Girl!

Summer officially begins this Saturday.  For many students, teachers, and others, it means that school is out and fun activities can officially start.  I've always been envious of people who work in the school system because of the summer break that they get.  The other day, I dropped off Evie at my mom's house for the day and definitely felt sad.  I realized how big she is getting and wished I was able to spend the summer with her.  We do try to get out as much as possible on the weekends, but I definitely feel like I am missing out on taking her to the splash pad, having outdoor picnics, and just enjoying the warm weather since I am stuck at work most days until 5 or 6pm.  It's definitely not easy being away.  If you are a working mom, hopefully you can relate, and my hat is off to you.  While I know that being a stay at home mom is also super challenging, I would love to be able to at least spend half my week with Evie and work part-time.  Can we just sell our house and live in a tent? :)  This week I am definitely appreciating all the time I have with Evie.  It's little moments, like this one, when I realize what a big girl she's becoming, that make me smile.  She's really becoming such a little lady and it warms my heart.
