On January 3, I gave birth to my first child - Jack.
It's been such an incredible experience watching my helpless newborn baby grow into a chubby little six-month-old who is already trying to talk. (He'll probably be a chatterbox like his mum).
But all good things must come to end, and so here I am back at my desk and it's already feeling a bit like I never left.
The cliches about time speeding by when you have a child are true.
I'm pretty excited to get back into work mode. I'd missed the hilarious office banter and adult conversations.
As any stay-at-home parent knows, sometimes it can get a little bit hard without that mental stimulation.
Maternity leave definitely confirmed to me that I love my job - I love interacting with people, I love writing and I love our team here at Franklin County News.
I can't wait to hear from the Franklin community again!
