so today is the first full friday that i'm going to work since evie was born. the whole thing has really been weighing on me ever since i accepted this job. evie decided to make it a little easier on me.
this morning she was totally excited that she gets to go to a new house for the day and play with her friend stella (our new friday share partner). evie, paloma and gladys have been playing with stella and her nanny lindsay at the park for the last few months, so there's a lot of familiarity. today is actually lindsay's last day (she's moving to wisconsin and getting married), but it's a great transition for evie and she knows her, and the new nanny, dana, will be spending the day with them, so evie will know her next week when she's on her own with the girls.
on my way out the door this morning, evie was sitting down and thumbing thru her copy of "gallop" (oh, mom, we already have "swing"). all of the sudden she starts "reading" the book out loud. ok, i know it's really just reciting, but it was so bloody adorable. made me a little teary. i didn't even know that she'd memorized it.
to top it all off, i had the lightest traffic on the way into work and made it here in record time AND i just found out that the other friday mommies are going to meet up with evie, stella, lindsay and dana at the playground today, so she's going to have herself a wonderful day.
happy.
