So, today started off much like yesterday-Spencer refused to walk himself into his school (even forgoing the steps, which are his favorite part of the walk). But when he got there, Mrs. Grace had a great suprise. A singing puppy-the kind where you push the different parts and it sings a different song or says something.
We have one at home, but it is kind of possessed, it goes on and off on its own at random times, which makes it very difficult to play with. But this one seems to work fine, and he didn't even notice me leaving.
Now, I have to say, there is a touch of guilt associated with just walking out the door without saying goodbye, much less trying to slip out the door without being noticed. But his little pitiful face when he sees me leaving just breaks my heart. I know that he will find something to play with in the next 30 seconds and be fine, but still...
That said, yesterday when i went to pick him up, there he was (for the 2nd day) sitting on the 1/2 door to the room (in his teachers arms) moaning and groaning. It was so sad. The teachers said that he would cry every time someone's mom came to get him. Poor baby! But I know. He loves his class and his friends (and his girlfriend allison) and we DID have almost 3 weeks without daycare, so it will just take a bit of time, but, please, Spencer, hurry before mommy has to quit her job to stay home-and I don't know if either of us wants that!
