25 Days of Thanks - Day Eleven

Stolen Moments and Flexible Work Schedules

Wow, as I am doing this project, I am realizing just how much I value about my job!  Today I am very thankful for the flexible work schedule that I have.  I have caught a cold and obviously needed sleep this morning since I woke up and hour and half late!  I literally woke up 7 minutes before I should have been leaving.  There was no way I was going to be able to get out the door on time, so I decided to text my boss tell him I would be late and to take advantage of the situation and take over "Daddy Duties" this morning.  David dresses Grayson and takes him to and picks him up from "school" every day.  But today I decided to handle it.  I loved the intimate moments with Grayson and am so thankful that I was able to have them.  The pictures above were taken during these stolen moments.  What allowed all of this are the facts that 1) I have the most awesome boss in the world and 2) Pepsi has a huge committment to Work Life Balance.  I made it to work a full hour after I was supposed to be here and it was fine.  Nobody said a word.  I am so thankful for that blessing.  I definitely try not to take advantage and with my travel schedule I make up the time.  But I am eternally grateful that I can take the precious moments when they present themselves and do it with a happy heart.
