Today was Hailey's first day in the toddler room at daycare. I must admit I have been so nervous about this, that a sense of dread came over me as I drove her to school this morning.
When they told me last week that Hailey would be moving rooms, I politely smiled but burst into tears as soon as I reached the car. She's only 8 months old! She can't walk! She still drinks her milk from a bottle! I felt like I was tossing a piece of steak into the lion's den. Those kids are much bigger than Hailey. They all walk, have teeth, and climb all over each other!
We all loved Ms. Judy and Ms. Cara in the baby room. Hailey has been with them since she was 6 weeks old. I am not familiar with the other ladies there. I am sure they are all nice and that they would not be working for Ms. Margaret if they were not good people, but those who know me, know that I do not like change.
I dropped her off this morning and they assured me that Hailey would be fine. In fact she seemed happy because she got to see all her buddies that had previously moved up. Her little friend squealed with delight and threw her arms out for hugs when she saw Hailey! How cute to have such a good buddy at only 8 months old!
Anyways, I survived the day, but could not wait to go pick up my Haileybug. She played so hard, she was one tired little girl. I now realize that I had nothing to worry about really and that most of these feelings were probably me being a little overprotective and the fact that I don't want my baby to grow up so fast, but I guess I will have to work on that.
