 First day of the month,it's my first day of work (yeah after 4 yrs.) and my first time to leave my son Johann with the nannies, just the nannies. Mixed emotions were flooding since last night. I'm excited to get back to work, and the best part is ,i will be doing it alongside my husband arnold, which means longer time with him hehe. I will be helping him to manage the family business, and he's going to be my boss. The thing is, i will be leaving my favorite guy at home as i go to work everyday. He is three.I know this is just a normal thing to do and i shouldn't be bothered. But who says i'm normal? I'm used to wake up each day with his kisses and his face right above mine. I'm used to wake up each day with his singing while jumping up and down my bed. Well, i still woke up with the same things this morning, only, i don't have time to enjoy it today.
If i'm not in the gym (which is usually 2 days a week), my days are usually spent with him, who makes a beeline behind me, everywhere. Honestly, i can't even go to the loo without him begging me to "open the door". Literally, he's my shadow, and there were times in the past that i would be frustrated about it. Those were the times when he would tell his dad in the evening that "mommy got mad", and when his dad would ask him why, he couldn't utter a thing. Maybe, just maybe, he couldn't say anything because he really doesn't know why i was upset. It really is not a good idea to get mad at kids because no matter how much you yell, they still wouldn't understand why. For my Johann, he doesn't understand why mommy has to have a space sometimes, all he wants is to be with mommy spongebob all the time. Yes, "Mommy spongebob", that's how he calls me when he wants to tease me, his dad,well he calls him daddy patrick :). Funny, i'm kinda missing these things today. Good thing i have his look-a-like right in front of me.
The good thing about being chummy with your boss is that you can charm him if you want a favor. I was able to talk my husband to give me a 9-2 full time job, my boss is an awesome one. I'm gonna go home soon, i'll give my son his bath, we'll watch hi fave cds together ( thomas,elmo, spongebob,dora *&^%%$#^@ ), and he can follow me around the house for as long as he wants. See you soon son.
