A Day Off

Since going back to work at our Fly Shop two days a week, I have found my time at work to be a bit of a day off.  Even though I'm working, it is so much slower paced than it can be at home with the kids.  It is also a relief to talk to adults a couple days a week.  I usually keep busy enough, that my role of mom all but fades away.  But today I got a message from the school that took me right back.  Christian's teacher sent me a picture of him during nap time.  He had wiggled his way off his mat, and was half way on the floor, sound asleep.  I instantly wanted to go pick him up, and snuggle with my baby.  So much for time off, but I'm a mom, and that always trumps anything else, even some preciously beautiful time away.
