It wasn't so bad...

My first week back to work is over. Sam survived daycare, in fact on Thursday Rachel (his daycare worker) said that he seemed to be getting used to the place. He was even exploring and was being quite talkative. Yay Sam! I am so proud of you! :) He came home with several adorable crafts, my favorite of which was a penguin that Rachel helped him make and for which the wings were traced cut-outs of his hands. It is so cute!

All in all, Sam did fairly well. He would cry when I dropped him off, but Rachel said he never cried long, and when I went to pick him up, he was always happy to see me. I think I was the one who had the harder time. When I was busy, I was ok. But any time I had a lull in clients, or when someone asked about Sam, I would miss him all over again. I found myself thinking about him, hoping he was ok, wondering what he was doing...it was hard.

Every evening when I picked Sam up from daycare, he would look at me, smile and say so sweetly "mama". I feel so blessed to have such a wonderful boy. :)

Glad your week wasn't too bad. Sadly, it gets easier.
