Addy and I knew it had to come at some point and time, but I don't think we were or are ever ready for it! I've been trying to prep Addyson for the transition back to school, but I don't know how helpful it was. I was trying to remind her of all the fun things at her school - friends, lunch, playground time, story time, circle time, new toys, and caring teachers. But I know, because I would too, that she really just wants to spend her time together with Mommy and Addy time.
We had a fun time in this last week of summer, but the transition was a little rough for both of us. Addyson, cries and hugs me with what feels like a death grip when I have dropped her off at school these past three days. And I have surely lost most all of my working stamina, leaving me exusted with a pounding head. When I picked Addyson up on Tuesday, she kept telling me, "Sorry I lost you Mommy!" Broke my heart. I tried to explain that since she knew where I was she didn't loose me. I don't think she really understood, though.
Hopefully by the time I really need to be on my A game this Tuesday, I'll be ready. And hopefully when Josh starts dropping Addy off at school on Monday, that she has a little bit of a less traumatic transition time at school.
