I had to go back to work this week, so Caroline started daycare at Bethel United Methodist Church Preschool. I was surprised to be so sad about this. I love my job, so it wasn't the working part that upset me. I always thought Moms were so silly to be upset about leaving their children at daycare. I just didn't get it. But now, I completely understand! All day Sunday I was close to tears and finally had a good cry Sunday evening before I was able to shake it off. When Monday morning rolled around, I woke up early, got myself ready, got Caroline up and dressed and fed, but then it was time to leave and I couldn't do it. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to leave her and I knew I couldn't do it without shedding some tears. Luckily, Lee stepped in and took over! He did the hard part and took her for her first day. I was the lucky one who got to pick her up, and as everyone promised, she was perfectly happy with her teacher, Ms. Elizabeth.
Did I mention that she is only going until 1 pm?? All of this and she was only there for 4 hours. I'll probably need some serious help when she goes full time!
