Wanted: Time Machine

It's been a while...we'll catch you up.

We spent the last few weeks enjoying what was left of our maternity leave and Derek's summer break. Every day was wonderful as we spent time bonding as a family, traveling and visiting family/friends and preparing our home for the rough reality of returning to work. Sunday May 23rd we were back in the Zion area so that we could dedicate Grace at our family's home church which was also the same church we were married in. After spending some time at home we traveled to Northern Wisconsin with Derek's family to see Grandpa Clark ("Papa G") and Iris. It was a wonderful way to end maternity leave!

Buuuttt, now we're back to reality. And we would like to put in a request for a time machine please.
Going back to work has been harder than we anticipated for Becky. Social Work jobs are always stressful, but this one takes the cake! Not just in terms of clients but in terms of the hours required, etc. It's hard to feel like you're doing both jobs well and the "mom" job is not one we want to compromise on, obvs. Which is why a time machine would be helpful. Or a duplicator so that we could both be in two places at once. How nice would that be? Derek's internship is going really well, but we still have decisions to make in terms of what would be best for our family. Prayers would be appreciated. And also that time machine thing. Stat.
