bring your baby to work day

today was "bring your kid to work day" or in my case "bring your baby to work day". it was fun. ethan came in, explored my office, ate breakfast, went downstairs to meet the other kids, came upstairs, went into his stroller and cried himself to sleep. he then slept while i worked for about an hour and a half. it was perfect. working with ethan within my line of vision. it's my dream. today it came true.

monkey was by far the youngest kid at edelman today. there are a lot of edel-kids around his age but ethan was the only one that made it to this special day. why? because of one person...my mom. she came to get him around 11:30 so that i could concentrate and finish up my work day. without her i couldn't make these type of events happen. not when i live 45 minutes from the office.

truly, my mom is amazing. when i need her, she's there. she is my rock, my cheerleader and my guide for what a good mom looks like. she helps with ethan so much and is always willing to provide support to us when we need it. she's just as giving to others, too. i truly believe everyone deserves a lee ann in their life.

our life works because of our village. i'm so happy we have so much support...but today i'm grateful for my mom. thank you mom for helping us make our life work so well. forever. tonopah.
