Day 168 - Return

My days as a nursing mom are over.  With both of our girls I pumped exclusively and this was a good fit for our family.  This morning I returned my little yellow Medela and I am done.  Since I only lasted seven weeks with Addison I am feeling pretty good about the fact that Olive is 9 months.  I am glad I lasted this long.  Especially when I calculated that I spent somewhere over 405 hours in the last nine months of this venture. 

Dear Father, thank you for perseverance.  Thank you for the support of everyone around me when I was frustrated by the process, exhuasted and loathing the little yellow machine.  Amen.
