Holiday hangover

Inevitably, after a long weekend like the 4th, I suffer from my own kind of hangover. Maybe "withdrawal" is a better choice of words...but going back to work after five straight days of just being a mom is always tough. It's just such a treat to spend all my time with Ben, especially now that he is growing into a little person. It's amazing the new stuff that happens everyday. And when we're plugging along in our routine it's less obvious. But when you string a bunch of days together, it's easy to see how much he is changing and all the fun stuff that is happening while I'm sitting at work all day. Definitely makes you cherish the days together, that's for sure...
