J is sleeping right now and I am holding off straightening my hair. Our charger for our computer broke so I am using my mom's right now. A new one is coming in the mail. I have a couple posts to put up ..but no computer means I can't get to my pics so they have to wait.
Once J is up we are headed off to the pet store for a new friend for his pet fish. The old friend attempt did not quite make it through the night :o(.
At 2:00 today we are heading over to Joey's school to meet with his teacher and new friends and play for a bit. In the fall he will be attending two days one week and three days the next, repeat pattern. I had planned to just white knuckle it and drop him off on his first day ... but that is not happening. We will be doing this a few times and I think it may be a healthier way to make the transition. Is that bad? Am I hovering? He is one, I am not sure how much to hold on and how much to let go. The director is so sweet and totally accommodating. She said this is a good thing to do and is so very welcoming. Please tell me I'm not becoming a helicopter parent...
Honestly, I'm not quite sure if we are going so he can get himself used to the place or I can get myself used to the place. I think it's probably both. I know this will be good for him and it is something he needs but he is my baby and it is still a little hard for his Mommy. I really truly am excited for all of the new experiences he will have and so is Joe! We know this is the best choice for us to be making as his parents and we feel so good about it; he will have all of the benefits of the stay-at-home parent environment with just enough of the day-care environment mixed in. I just hope that today goes well :o). I am afraid that if it doesn't .. well, I don't know really. I think mothers just always want everything to be wonderful for their children.
