Tomorrow, I go back to work after four and a half months being at home.
Tomorrow, I won't get to take a lovely, mid-day leisurely walk pushing Evan in the stroller.
Tomorrow, I will get to speak regular English to grown-ups, instead of baby talk to a four-month old. (but I'm not sure it's better.)
Tomorrow, my time will neither belong to me or to my baby.
Tomorrow, I will probably wonder what I was thinking in coming back.
Tomorrow, I will wear waterproof mascara.
Tomorrow, I find out if I can hack this working mom gig.
Wish me luck.

You are a brave, brave woman. I'm sure your super-executive-woman skills will come right back to you. I can't even imagine what a different role that must be from "mom".
You'll be great.
Good luck!
Good luck!!! You might find yourself talking baby talk to the adults. Be careful!! :)
In an effort to make work seem a little more like your at-home life, try this: Offer to powder and diaper a few of your coworkers. It can be very comforting to have that little throwback to motherhood in the workplace.
I mean, I'm assuming it can. I wouldn't know.
I mean it.
