A new chapter

While we got to New York on Monday, it’s actually starting to feel real today. We dropped Colin off at his daycare for his first day. He went in smiling and was ready to be a big boy. The daycare uses Brightwheel to send us updates on Colin, and I’m loving the experience so far. As much as I love spending time with him, it is nice for Sophia and I to have some time and help with childcare.

I also commuted into the city for my first day in the office. When I lived in New York during the pandemic for a couple of months, I signed us up for Rise in the Flat Iron. Now that the space is closing this summer, we’ll be moving to the FiDi at some point this week or next. It’s yet another move to handle, but this time around I’ll have a lot more hands and we’ll definitely be hiring help to do everything for us.

It does feel like a new chapter began today. Things will definitely get a lot more difficult at times managing commutes and strict daycare drop-off/pickup times. But things will definitely be a lot more fun and exciting living in New York again.
