What I forgot was how much I usually do during the day so I can have that grown up time! Running errands, cleaning, meal prep...all of this is now either crammed in my too-short mornings, or that two hour window at night. The time I get with my little guy should be play/fun time!
Funny story, my second day back at work, I picked up Levi around 4 from daycare (an awesome in-home daycare run by a friend). We got home, I gave him a snack, tossed Curious George on the TV, and went to clean the bathroom, my Wednesday chore. As I was on my hands and knees wiping the grout around the tub, he toddled into the room, took the rag out of my hand, and sat in my lap. I melted. We went back into the living room and snuggled on the couch for about an hour. I'll do my cleaning at night.
