Today was Kathryn's second day at day care. I have to say, Monday (her first day) was the hardest, but once we got there and I saw how excited the other kids were to have her there, I relaxed and actually felt good when I dropped her off. I knew she'd have fun, and she did, even though it was only for a half day.
Today she stayed for the whole day. When I pulled up around 8am, I saw the three kids (Quin, Kate and Seth) waiting by the door. I heard Quin shout, "Kathryn's here! Baby Kathryn's here!" He was practically squealing with joy. When I walked in, Quin showed me the bag of toys he brought just for Kathryn. He was so excited to have her there again. I later found out he was counting down the days till she came back.
Becky (her daycare provider) texted me twice during the day. One with a picture of her playing and the other saying she was having a wonderful day. It made me feel so much better.
I wish I could stay home with Kathryn, but I know there are benefits to this as well. She'll learn to be away from me and meet some new friends. I've got to look at the positives or else I get sad.
