Those lips



Those lips are heaven...

I may be bias but everything about this little guy is heaven. I feel like I'd give up the world for him. Including the offer to get my career back on track. Jobs come and go but these early days with Fletch are only here once. And so I'm saying thanks but no thanks to the job. I know how lucky I am to be able to stay at home so I plan on soaking up every minute, every smile, every laugh while I can.

And don't EVER regret it. I didn't. My year at home with Jude was beautiful...

Good choice.... that little face! Aw.

How unfair being faced with this so early into motherhood. I just read your post about the job offer, amazing job. I remember having to make the same decision in jakarta 11 years ago, not an easy one. I ended up taking 6 years away from the workforce and then found my way back in, first part-time, then full time. I went back to work when number 4 was 5 months old - 2 years later we moved to Houston and when I thought about going back to the office I realized I wanted to have his final couple of years at home before beginning school with him. You never get the time back. My mother is 66 and still working. There's plenty of time for work.

Still doesn't make it an easy decision though.

AND how gorgeous is your little guy. GORGEOUS!

Aw your baby Fletch is beautiful, congratulations! Such a hard choice you have had to make, but you will never have this special time with your boy again, but there will be other jobs + opportunities that will arise when the time is right. I feel that as women we are forced to make such difficult choices + it doesn't seem fair, but just have faith that something perfect for you will present itself xx
