First Day Of School

Jacob's first day at Mother's Day Out was tramatic for me. I don't know how mothers that have to go straight back to work after having a baby do it. I just take Jacob to MDO two days a week from 9:15 to 1:30. He stays with a good friend one morning a week as well. I am so lucky to have a job in which I can work from home. To say the least, I cried when I dropped him off, and I picked him up a little early. His teachers Mrs. Judy and Mrs. Jennifer said he did fine. Relief! They told me he had taken a nap and everything. Jacob is a needy sleeper so to speak. He has to be rocked and swaddled. I just wasn't sure he was going to make it in a room full of children, but he did. I will say he took a long nap as soon as we got home. In fact he does most days after MDO. Dropping him off is much easier now. I enjoy being able to get out of the house a bit and really I think he does too. I love going to pick him up though. There is nothing better than when he sees me and starts kicking his little feet and grinninng from ear to ear.
