I applaud you!

Well, this Sunday was a new experience for me. Yes, I am pathetic, I will go ahead and admit it before I write everything I am about to confess.

This Sunday, March 1st, was Reese's first time in the nursery at church and YES, would you believe I cried. I prayed to God all through church that He would help me to focus on the wonderful sermon but all I could think about was my little man, how is was doing, did he miss me? Should I go rescue him? Should I check my number in case his number flashed on the screen? Was he making any new friends? (Ok, maybe that wasnt my worry so much, but you get it)
After the service was over, we went to pick him up...he was circled by all the teachers and they were just laughing at him while he sat smiling in his bumbo. Ok, so maybe that was easier than I thought.
I want to APPLAUD every Mommy that has to work. You are soooo strong and what you sacrifice for your kiddos is amazing! I know deep down inside you want to be home with your kids....but you sacrifice everything to provide for your children. I understand your heart ache when you leave them....I mean, I was only away for an hour and I wanted to rescue my son. I have a lot of girlfriends that work, and I just wanted to let you know you are soooo appreciated and I know that feeling you feel when you have to leave your baby....it isnt fun!

"May you be made strong with all the strength that comes from his glorious power, and may you be prepared to endure everything with patience." Colossians 1:11
