A whole new life

So, I am about to begin my last full week with my daughter before I go back to work. I cannot believe that almost three months have passed. How our life has changed is amazing. I have a whole new set of priorities, one's that never even existed in my life before. I have mixed emotions about going back to work. Most of me is sad because I don't want to be away from her. I want to be the one to comfort her when she is sad, make her laugh and most importantly witness all of her "first's". At the same time, there is a part of me that is glad. Although she pretty much is my whole world now, I truly believe in my heart that it is good for both of us to not be together every minute of every day. It will be good for her because she will learn that there are other people that love her and can make her happy. She won't become overly attached to only me, she will learn socialization, etc. It will be good for me because I will think of something other than how much she is eating, how much she is pooping, and how much she is sleeping. I am definately the type of person that needs adult interaction and I have always believed that it is good for kids to be taken care of by others. While I am sure there will be first's that I miss, there will always be seconds, and thirds, and forths, etc. Many of my working mom friends tell me that the best part of working is that it makes every second that you are with your child precious and you give them your undivided attention in the time that you are with them. I think mostly it is hard because for the past three months I have been with her almost constantly. It will be an adjustment, just like every change is, and I will get used to it. I think in the end, like I said above, it will be really good for both of us, once we get used to it.
