Spring Break was very enjoyable and laid back for me. Unlike some college students I didn't go to the beach, or go clubbing, or go have some crazy wild time in Cancun; instead I spent all my time with my son, which was so much better. I woke up with him and we went to the park every day. I feel guilty a lot because when im in school I have to rush off to class in the mornings when he wakes up and when I get home I have a ton of homework to do so sometimes we dont make it to the park. It breaks my heart to hear him cry as I have to rush off, especially now that he is going through seperation anxiety. Sometimes I think I should maybe postpone school until he is in school himself. But I know that the only way I can give him a good childhood is if I have a degree and a job by the time he is entering school, so that is motivation for me to stick through school, no matter how stressful it is.
Other than spending a lot of time with Aden I also got to go out with some friends to go see Alice in Wonderland (great movie! visually beautiful). I reconnected with two old friends, one whom I hadn't seen in YEARS. I got to visit my cousin and her newborn baby girl (I was amazed at how tiny she was, I cant believe Aden was that size!). I went to my field experience at the middle school. And, last but not least, I treated myself to an amazingly relaxing massage at the spa. It was my early birthday gift/ early Mother's Day gift/ congratulatory gift for not jumping off a balcony so far this semester.
But, now its back to reality. And reality sure does bite when first day back you have a super hard math test! >:[

Spending time with your son is important but a kiss and a hug at least once a day will let him know that you do love him. I can only imagine what you must be feeling as you leave for school, but just think of the benefits your giving him by going to school! You will make it.
