Abandonment

Monday marked yet another first day. This time it was Adam’s turn. Adam was at a day care center for the first time Monday morning. If you’re unfamiliar with having children and using day care centers… the first day is often one of the first times you feel like a failure as a parent.

He cried when Cheryl dropped him off, he was playing when she picked him up, and he seemed emotionally intact Monday night. Maybe it will be alright after all. We’ll see how he does after his second day (today).

Give the gift of words.
