Jia wish I had two years off . . . at least!

So here I am with my newborn.  Yes, she's 3 months old and she's still my newborn.  ;)
She is so sweet.  We hang out together all day and do whatever we want.  Jia likes taking long walks, so we do that a lot.  She also likes playing and smiling, so we do whatever we can to keep the smiles big.  I'm happy when I think about how lucky I am to be home with her, but then I feel sad when I remember that this won't be forever.

I'm a principal at a Deaf school.  Although I love what I do as a professional and am proud of how hard I worked to get here, this job is very demanding.  It definitely is not a 9-5 kinda job.  I have parents to meet with, kids to reprimand, teachers to evaluate, staff to watch, and the list goes on.  I have so many deadlines as a principal that it is hard to keep up.  And if I want to be a really good one, I really have to devote lots of time to it.  To have such a responsibility along with the responsibilities as a wife and mother is hard.  So I try to cherish each and every second I have with my little one.

Here she is at 3 months already.  Time is flying by . . .

Jia Paola = sweet love
