first week

This week was my first week back at work. I missed my little monkeys awfully and wanted to cry on more than one occasion.
Don't get me wrong I do actually like my job and I work with some really great people but I think we all know where I would rather be :). I've always said I am happy to work - just a little less would be good.
DH stays home and looks after the monkeys and as far as looking after them goes he does a great job - but the housework side of things is typically male and could use a little work.
I had a special surprise too during the week - a surprise parcel with some things I'd organised to buy( kids clothes of course) - it was a surprise because not only had I not paid her but she also included a couple of yummy treats, some yummy butterscotch organic chocolate and some sublime white organic fair trade tea.
She also wrote a little note to let me know she was thinking of me in my first week back at work and let me tell you it really touched me and yes I even had a little cry and all this love and thoughtfulness from a woman I have never met.
Thankyou Fiona - you have no idea how much it meant to me.

and just a little pic to show why it was so hard to go to work every day - isn't he perfect
