my post about the sad end of a wonderful era.

Oimygawd! Sometimes this maternity leave feels like it will never end but then I've discovered since xmas how much I enjoy spending time with Rian. Just today as he fell asleep in bed while I read, I was blown away yet again that I have such a wonderful little dude.

But to get the NOTICE! Truly sucks! Its one thing to dally a little with work but another to be kicked out of your own nest. You could always try the self-employed EI route (have 2 friends who have done that where they teach you how to launch your own business and give you EI while doing it) but it'll still be time away from Nile.

Hang tough me dear!

Oh, that sucks, Melissa. These days, the thought of life AML (After Maternity Leave) is what's keeping me up at night. I'm still kind of in denial about it, and your post is a bit of a wake-up call.

I hope you land on a solution that works for you. And please let me know whatever it is!

How sad... So, it's true what they all say - this really ends? One day, I have to go back to the world of the living? Why can't we all win the lottery...?

It too keeps me up at night, as evident by the bags under my eyes. That and daycare. Arg. Gotta stop thinking about it, it's gonna ruin my Saturday morning.
