Back to Normal...sort of

{photo booth fun}
I went back to work a couple weeks ago...which means I come home to photos like this. I think Ruby is pleased to have her one-on-one time with Dad back. Hugh is much better at simply playing and lounging with Ruby than I am. There is always something to clean or an errand to run when I'm around. My return to work has been good, overall. I find my eyes filling with tears numerous times during my shifts...and especially each time I pull-up to Primary's and look up at Hughie's NICU window. No longer is Primary Children's just where I work...it is my Hughie. Most of my memories made with him are in that special building. So there is something special about spending two days a week where my little man spent most of his short life. One day I hope to have the strength to go back into the NICU and give his wonderful nurses a big hug. Until then, I hope to be a better nurse to my sweet little patients. And although it seems our life is getting back to "normal", I can't help but know that I won't ever be the same again.

Megan,
I can't imagine going back to work after being there so much with little Hughie! That would be SO hard. I am sure I would be crying a lot!!! I am thinking of you and wish I was still working there so I could see you. :)

You are so strong Meg. Those pictures and video are precious. The classic "Ruby no".
How are dads so good at just chillin' and having fun with their kids? I constantly have to remind myself to just relax and play to create good memories. I love you!
You are one amazing women! I'm so glad you are back at CSU and it sounds like Ruby is also. I can't wait to hear what went on when I get home from work, it's always something I would never have thought of on my own. They are lucky to have Dads.
oh how i missed your updates while i was away. i love you meg!
