Hey everyone,

I just wanted to say hello. I finally got my full time position so I have
been at work. I had to put 2yo DD in daycare. She cried the first day a
little, the second day she screamed, and the third day she cried for less
than a minute. DH was heart broken, I think he wanted me to stay home after
that, but I wasn't about to.

Soon they are having a PJ day with pizza and popcorn. I will have to make
her a pair of pj's. Unfortunatley cute pj's are low on the list of things
to have in our house, since they are worn in the dark. Oldest DD got 3
pairs for her birthday, so when PJ day comes to school she is set.

For the youngest DD's PJ day I have some great baby blue knit eyelet type
stuff I have been saving for about two years, very soft and stretchy. I
think I will make a peasant type shirt with shirring at the neck. And for
the pants maybe some oversized ruffles on the bottom. I also have some cute
printed knit fabric in a lighter blue with kitties on it. Maybe that can be
for appliques on the shirt and the ruffle on the pants.

To make matters more complicated, with work and everything else, my DH got
hurt, he was cutting out a windshield and the blade he was using sliced the
side of his hand by his thumb. It nicked an artery and blood was
everywhere. He had to go to get stitches and can't help with the housework
anymore for at least a month. (Needless to say I am a bit behind on it now
LOL) Thankfully he is ok, he is pretty tough, working with glass and knives
all the time he has built up a tolerance to cuts. He just can't get the
stitches too wet or strain too hard.

And I am still working on that collarless blazer with the princess seams. I
have to find time for that, and to hem the matching skirt.

I think thats all to report, I have to get ready for work. I am so happy
to have finally gotten the position!!!

Michelle,

Wow sounds like lots going on at your house. Wonderful news on the job.
Glad also that the baby is adjusting to daycare. She will love the jammies.
Sounds like a really cute plan you have there. ;)

Sorry about your hubby's hand. I have sympathy pains for him. Made me
cringe when I read that. Then I thought about the no housework part.......
That almost makes the whole thing worth it!!! LOL!!!!!!!!! Hope he heals
up soon.

Remember to take time to take care of yourself too, sweetie!

Sharon

Since you brought it up here, I will comment.

Like your MW quote says: "You only live once". But your 2 yr. old only
lives once as well. You seem very happy about "your position", having
mentioned it twice. How about the "position" you're placing your child
in? Your DH's instincts are right, your place is with her now.

All our kids are grown and have children also, and they still mention
the fact that their mom was always there for them. We got by on less
and never regretted her decision to fill completely the most important
"position" there is or ever will be, that of being a Mother.
