Return to Normalcy

Tomorrow marks my return to work and I am incredibly torn about it. I miss my youth kids like crazy, but I'm gonna miss my little man so much too!

We took Thomas to Stone Mountain to visit the youth last week during Youth Week. It was great to see everyone and introduce them to Thomas. Some of them met him during TIME, but others didn't get a chance to. We also got a chance to spend some time as a family and got some great pics.
 
We also had a chance to head to a family reunion in Alabama this weekend. It was great to see family I don't get to see very often. Thomas was, of course, the youngest family member there. I tried to get a photo with him and the oldest relative, but it didn't work out. I did get some with him and my aunt and cousin:

 So our "summer of love" is coming to an end. Tomorrow I'll go back to work and I won't get to take in every moment of my little boy's life journey. It'll be hard, but he'll be with Josh for a few weeks and then he'll stay with a woman from our church who is also expecting a baby very soon. It'll be a great opportunity for him to play with other babies his age and will make me more appreciative of our time together. Right now I'm cherishing every little snuggle, coo and whimper I can.

Just taking it all in...
