Our first day of school was not too bad. The report from the teacher was that Elliott did great, but cried throughout the day asking for me (it makes me a little happy in an awful way). At one point, he was inconsolable. The teacher said that he cried a good 20 minutes. He took a 7 minute nap, and was resting well when I picked him up. The only thing he said on the car ride home was that he did not want to go back :(
I was surprised the next day when he told me he wanted to go to school "right now." Whohoo!
This morning, we got there late--had to take him to the doctor because of an awful cough--turned out to be allergies. He was so excited on the car ride there! Again, when he walked into the classroom, I was completely ignored. When I picked him up, I walked in the door to the school to see the director holding and trying to calm him down. When I asked why he was crying he said that he did not know where I was.
At this point, I can only hope that each day will get better :)
My pup is growing up too fast :(. And, he'd be crazy not to miss his incredible mommy! Can't wait to see y'all in 11 days!
