And again, it's been a couple weeks. I knew I would get like this, I'm a wonderful procrastinator. I also don't have very much to say as our daily routines become just that, routine.
But today, Colin and I are home sick. Well Colin is sick and I am trying everything to make him feel better, and get better so that I won't miss work again tomorrow. I am lucky in that I still get paid when I miss work (Yay,unions!) but I am definitely discouraged from staying home with my baby when he's sick.
The thing is, he can't go to daycare ill. And any of my family members who don't work have children and don't want him over to get their kids sick. So what is a parent to do? I can't imagine those who don't get sick or special leave through their workplaces or those who have a serious fear about losing their job because they need to stay home.
Anyway, since I am home now and have a bit of time, I thought I should 'ketchup' a bit.
Schools are back in session and the preschools at my work are no exception. I am excited about the children that I get to see this year. Sometimes people ask "How can you leave your children to take care of someone else's?" and it is hard. But I get to go home and love my baby. I appreciate him more and I miss him more. I am reminded at how blessed I am to have such a sweet, happy, wonderful baby who is disguised as a little boy.
I am also starting up school again. To finish my Early Childhood Education certificate courses. I am doing a prior learning assessment so I am hoping to complete the course early and get it over and done with.
Other then those things I don't feel like anything else is new, but because it's fairly routine, maybe there are more exciting things going on that I'm forgetting. Perhaps I will remember later and that will be cause for me to post again :)
Disclaimer: I have also been slacking on the picture taking. Sorry.
