Well today was the day, the day that I would return to work full-time and leave my babies. I will admit that all of the anxiety and nervous energy that I had leading up to today was not necessary. Everything was much the same as it was before I left for my maternity leave. I spent over 6 hours deleting and responding to the 2500 e-mails that I had accumulated over the last 13 months - just a little ridiculous. Tomorrow my plan includes going through my filing cabinet and trying to figure out what is important and what I can toss. It was actually quite liberating to delete so many e-mails at once and not really worry about the content of 75% of them. I am sure it will feel just as good to tackle that filing cabinet tomorrow.
I did miss Emily and Madalyn for most of the day, but it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be. I didn't even cry during my drive to work - but I think that was a case of mind over matter - I needed to get my employee id replaced and was afraid that I would look a little bit like Alice Cooper if those tears that were welling up spilled over and caused my mascara to run :)
