A year ago, I considered quitting. There were a lot of factors contributing to that almost-decision (a few of which had to do with the overwhelming amount of pregnancy hormones raging through my body), but I'm glad I stuck with it. I had a few people tell me that if I waited to finish it after I had Jack, that I probably wouldn't. And to be quite honest, I wondered if they would be right. But they weren't, and I'm proud of myself for getting the job done.
With staff training approaching, I've been gathering supplies that I need that I've lent out throughout the year. I stopped by Maria's house to pick up some of my videos that I let her use. She also gave me a nice little container of cupcakes to celebrate the completion of my paper with this little note attached:

My favorite part of Maria's cupcakes was the cream filling in the center! Who doesn't love cream filling? She mentioned that she was trying a new recipe . . . which I took to mean that I'm getting a full serving of veggies when I eat one. It was probably the best cupcake I've ever had, so I don't care if there were pureed anchovies in it!

We've had a week full of highs and lows around here . . . but more about that later.
