I cried twice today. Today was Cam's first day of Pre-K. The drop off was rather difficult. He was very anxious and uncomfortable. I stayed with him for a little while, but knew it was doing more harm than good. I asked one of his teachers to sit and talk with him (they were eating snack) as I left. I knew having an adult interact with him would be helpful. He was crying a little as I left, but I held back my tears until I left the classroom. Cry #1.
An hour later I called to see how he was doing (the sweet director told me I could call as much as I wanted). Apparently he was doing great and a little girl had even latched onto him and was showing him around the playground. Cry #2 because hearing this just made my week!!!!
p.s. Does he look handsome for his first day, or what?? Grandma got him this new shirt last weekend. :)

YAY for a good first day! It IS crazy how emotional we get over our children--how much we worry about them and how big those emotions are! He IS a handsome dude Kelly!
