Work approved me dropping to 32 hours/week. As excited as I am, I was very hesitant. I was nervous about dropping my salary by 20%, being able to handle my entire workload in 4 days instead of 5, and derailing my career.
My first Friday off I am having a "Girls Day" with Gwen. We are going to lunch and to see "Brave". This morning I came home from boot camp and she said to me "Look mommy, I'm up. Only 3 more sleeps.". She is counting down the number of times she goes to bed before our Girls Day. That in itself solidified the fact that I am doing the right thing for me and for my family. I just love her*!!
*She was pretty rough from age 3-3.5, but our fantastic/amazing little girl is coming back to us! Even her teacher says that Gwen "blows her away" at how smart and wonderful she is. She was the only one listening to the lesson "dissolve" the other day.
Just. So. Happy.
