Last night I found out I was accepted into that book editing course, and after a bit of soul searching, I’ve decided to go. I’d always regret it if I passed up this opportunity. It’ll be oh so hard to leave Justin for a week, but I don’t think it’ll leave any long-lasting scars on his psyche, and this is something I really want to do.

If he was a fussy baby who never slept, I’d probably jump at the chance to spend a week in a hotel, but he’s such a good baby that it’s going to be tough to leave. But like so many aspects of parenting, it’ll be harder on Mom than on baby. Sigh…
