No Love School

That's what Olivia cried in the car on the way to daycare this morning...over and over...."No Love School.  Mama come get you!"  And by "you", she means "me" - she gets confused on pronouns. 

Day #2: She actually had a better day yesterday.  She still cried all morning, but took a good nap and had a better afternoon.  Owen had another great day.  But then he refused to leave school.  Yes, I can't get one kid to go to school, and the other one planted himself in the middle of the room with a toy and said "I stay here".  Ms. Penny was laughing with me.  We (Mimi was there, too) had to bribe Owen with ice cream to leave school. 

Day #3: Owen wakes up so excited to go to school.  Olivia was hesitant, but then when we got in the car, had a complete meltdown and cried the entire way.  When we got to her classroom, she kept crying, but reached for the teacher.  Maybe that was a positive sign?  Or she just realizes I'm going to leave whether she's crying or not.  Check back here later for an afternoon update.  My goal is to get out of there without bribery :)

  1. Hang in there! Kinley still screams each morning but apparently does just fine not too long after. Big transition, I guess!
