A Hug to Last a Lifetime

Hi Mommy bloggers! It has been a while since I last blogged. Why? Because I don't like reaching out to the cyberworld? Of course not! Because I have nothing to blog about? Certainly not! It has been because there has been so much change and transition taking place in my life that I haven't had the opportunity to catch myself up. But today is the day.

I have started a new job. A job that is in my passion field. (This means a career that has something to do with what I am passionate about). This job is not only in my passion-field but it has a great benefit package that would suit my family's lifestyle a lot better than my previous job.

But every good thing comes with its sacrifices...

I have a really tough schedule which would have me making decisions regarding my child that I just am not comfy with. I have a choice of what part of his day I will participate in-drop off or pick up. See, my new job is an hour commute from our home. His school's hours would not meet my schedule of needing to drop him off or pick him up. So you can imagine the heartache I feel when "Mom's gotta do what mom's gotta do."

The first day was tough...Mommy no longer worked at his school in the office and he realized that. So our "Good-bye" took longer than usual. He just held on and would not let me go. At first I am thinking that he is just playing but something in his hug let me know that this was real...he really didn't want to let me go. So on day 5 of this new journey we are on, I just held on a little longer. He put his lil head on my shoulder and I held on a little longer.

If I were to never get another hug from my son, this hug could last me a life.

Blessings to you,
Aurellia
