Today was a hard day. Now that Sam is 1, he has graduated to the Teddies room at school. Today was his first day in the new room, and to say the least, it was awful. I did my normal pick up at noon, only to hear his screams echoing down the hallway. I was hoping it wasn't Sam, but sure enough, I walked into his room and he was miserable. His eyes were swollen shut and he had been crying for hours. When I went to pick him up, he was shaking and had a very hard time catching his breath. I was irate. I asked the teachers what happened, and they just said that he had a hard day. Well, for a mom, that wasn't good enough, and I was furious. I collected his things and left. I've never seen him shake like this before...he was shaking all the way home. When we got home, we cuddled for a while (which he NEVER lets me do) and we sang songs, had a bottle and finally he snapped out of his dilema.
A while later I called the school. I spoke to the lead teacher and she said it was a tough day for him and she thinks he will get better as the weeks go on. She assured me that nothing out of the ordinary happened, he was just tired.
I'm still very frustrated, and am upset at the fact that we put him through this.....
Until Friday, when we go again.....
