Refreshed

We are home from our week long beach vacation with my parents, sister, and Robert's parents. I feel more rested than I have in two years. It was so nice to have other people taking care of Adam. I devoured several magazines from cover to cover. I journaled. I listened to Gilmore Girls podcasts that Robert found for me. I played with my son. Robert and I talked about our goals for the next year, and we even had a few dates. I desperately needed this time away from home. It took me several days to unwind though. I don't think I fully relaxed until Thursday. My life has definately had a different pace as a mom. I don't know that it's harder than teaching, but definately a job that never stops. The best part of the trip was watching Adam discover how fun it is to crawl in the sand! The most memorable part was parasailing twice!
