denial.


i am in denial.
major denial.
in just a blink of an eye, the timer will ding, and my maternity leave will be over.
i know this.
yet, i refuse to believe/deal with it.
i cannot even stomach the thought of leaving this 7 pounds of pure sweetness with anyone besides me.
really. it makes me feel sick.
i know i do not have a choice.
i know i have commitments to my employer.
commitments to my family.
commitments to life.
but what was i thinking?
did i ever think leaving her would be possible?
or did i just refuse to think of it at all?
yep.
that's it.
i have nothing lined up.
i have nothing in the works.
i have done nothing.
and to be honest, i don't plan on dealing with it today.
or tomorrow.
mostly because i still have these days with her and i know that this little issue
will still be waiting for me tomorrow.

cheers to long naps in your bed and baby lip kisses in your home.
