    post-work baby play

    @j2049 I try to do 15-30 minutes of phone free focused playtime with lots of eye contact. The rest of the night I’m washing my pump parts, making/eating dinner, prepping for the next day. I play with her, but it’s mostly just to fill my own cup because I love miss her so much.
