Dear James,
I can’t even begin to describe how wonderful my maternity leave with you has been. I’m so grateful for every moment of bonding we’ve had. Watching you grow and discover new things has been such a joy.
In honor of our last day of maternity leave together we had lots of snuggle time, mixed in with a little grocery shopping, laundry and getting all the bags ready for our big day tomorrow. It’s incredible how many bags we’re going to need by the way. Diaper bag, mom’s work bag, purse, lunch box, pump and you! in that heavy car seat we lug around. I need more arms!
You’ve mastered the bumbo seat this week and I can’t get over how much of a little man you are. I also dressed you in this appropriate onesie to commemorate our last day of leave.
If you can’t see…it’s a check list of James’ favorite things. And at the top of that list: Mommy!!!
I love you so much baby boy, but I also know that you are a strong boy who will do amazing with Ms. Barbara at your first day of school. And how could anyone not fall head over heals for this face?
I’m going to miss you though. That sweet smile, your smell, your peach fuzz hair, those bright blue eyes, chubby legs, and your fingers curled around mine.
Sweet Baby James will you miss me too?
YES MAMA!
James I can’t wait to hear all about your time at school and all the friends you’ve made.
But after a hard day back to work for me, I’m so thankful you and your dad will be there with open arms.
I love you more than words can say sweet son. And I’ll always keep our first three months together close to my heart.
Love,
Mama.

Ahhh... just what I needed this morning - TEARS!!! I hope things at work went well! Did you make it on time??
Ok, I'm not supposed to be teary at work! Hope your first day back is going smoothly. I'm sure sweet baby James made everyone's day at "school"!
Hold on, I can't believe it has already been 3 months!?!?!? James is getting so big. Where is he going to "school"?
