I received a call a month ago from a principal letting me know that he had a 3rd grade full time teaching position open. Of course, I was so grateful for the opportunity but giving up my part time job at my old school with colleagues I loved and less time during the week with Lucas was definitely not an easy decision and one that Mike and I really had to think about. After thinking long and hard about it we decided that it was the best thing for our family for me to take the job. Of course, we have the best babysitters for Lucas (my parents, Grandmay and Grandpay) and to add to it Mike works from home which makes it run a little smoother. My parents have been so wonderful with Lucas and it makes leaving for work so much easier, since he waves to me and says "bye" every morning. My parents take the best care of Lucas and we could not express to them how grateful we are. Here are a few pictures from the last three weeks of what Lucas has been up to while Mike and I are at work and Grandmay and Grandpay are in charge.
