Going back to work

Jovie LoungingI can’t believe my 4 weeks vacation/paternity leave is over.  I’m going back to work FT tomorrow and will miss spending all that time with the wife and daughter.  I hope the day/week goes by fast.

It hardly seems fair that I’ll be away 40 hours out of every week, about 50 if you include lunches and commute time.  But then again, bills must be paid and Jovie will need that education someday.  **crosses fingers** — I hope she gets a scholarship.

Meanwhile, Cynthia will still be at home for several weeks, so that’s good.  I just pray that Jovie goes easy on her while I’m at work.  =P

Having Jovie has made me realize how little time we have each and every day and how fast it goes by.  Just in the past 25 days since her birth it seems she’s already grown so much–from 7.14 lbs at birth to 8.5 lbs as of last week, most likely even more now.

At 25 years old, I find it really hard to believe that in only 25 years, Jovie will be 25 years old.

Jovie LaughingI wonder what God has in store for Jovie.  I only hope that God gives her the many blessings Cynthia and I have received thus far and then some.

As for now, I plan to do my part by giving my all to help Jovie live her life the way Cynthia and I have been living ours the past 9 years and 1 month together–To always have Faith, Hope and Love, and to fully enjoy each and every moment …or baby-step.  =)
