To Be A Man And Be Strong

Posted at 9:11 am on Monday, October 1, 2007

Well, I managed to drop AJ off at daycare without crying. The front office even offered me tissues, but I told them I would be fine. I had a few teary-eyed moments.
AJ was fussy while I was there… he would play and be fine, and then come fussing towards me. I had a lot to do while I was there, to get him settled. Diapers here, sheets there, bottles in the fridge. Stuff like that. But when I left him, with a hug and a kiss and a goodbye I love you, he just looked at me. I even waited outside for a few seconds to hear if he fussed.
Now I just have to get through the day without calling every five minutes.

I tried to come down and check on you this morning but … suddenly I had students and got tied up. I’ll check on him and let you know how much he misses you later :-)

Praying for you today! I’m sure he’s having a great time playing with the other babies :) I think the excitement on his face when he sees you there to pick him up will make up for how hard it was to drop him off.
