Back to Daycare

September 14th, 2009

Today was Gavin’s first day back to daycare. He has been going to work with me for the last 6 months. I was not sure how he would do and… he did fine. He was crying when I left, but stopped crying by the time I got to the front door. He will do just fine and I know that he will have a great time. He will have lots of fun with his new friends. As we left today, he was waving and saying, ‘Bye, friends’.

Mommy, however, missed him… Lots! I kept looking at the clock… 9:30 – snack, 11 – lunch, 12 – nap, 2:30 – snack, and 4:00 – time to pick up my baby! I expect that I will have withdraws a lot longer than he will!
