Looking Back: 6 Weeks

You were only six weeks old.  SIX WEEKS!  Time had gone by sooo fast and you were headed for your first day of day care and Momma was going back to work.  You were so little and helpless but the ladies at Playworld assured me that you would adjust just fine.  Deep down everybody was probably more worried about me! 

Momma was of course running late, so it wasn't too bad leaving you there that morning...but when I left you at lunch after coming by to nurse you, I had a breakdown!  I had to practically run down the hallway to get to my car so nobody would see me crying!  I missed you so badly and was consumed with worry about you!  It's impossibly difficult for a first time mother to leave her little boy "all alone" with "total strangers"!  (I never imagined how much you would end up loving all the ladies that took care of you that first year!)

That afternoon at work however, I  recieved not one but TWO flower arrangements to brighten my day!  One was from your Daddy and the other was from an unknown sender! (I think it was sent by a group of good friends- Mrs. Robin, Mrs. Lisa, Mrs. Jessica! sneaky ladies!)

Six weeks was tough...one of the first times your Momma had to learn to let you go!  And believe me that was a LOT harder than it sounds with a sweet little boy like you!

Love,
Momma
