My son did very well on his first day and so did I. I'm amazed at my job that the kids actually listen to me and don't explode in a rage when I correct their behavior. It's a nice change. My second block class is challenging because they like to talk but it's not I'mossible to deal with. I don't feel like ripping my hair out at the end of the day. It's pretty awesome.
Unfortunately today my son had a tough morning. He started crying when I left and my mom said he cried the whole time until he got on the bus. He cried so hard he threw up his breakfast. I don't think he realized that kindergarten is an every day thing and that mommy can't stay home with him every day. But my mom said he got on the bus, so he didn't flat out refuse to go. When I picked him up he was happy as a clam and said he had a good day. He's been doing this for a couple of months now, even with preschool. He would cry a little in the morning but his teacher said as soon as I left he was fine. I think it's anxiety. He gets worried about me when I leave, which I understand because I was the same way after my father died. I was sure my mother was going to die too. It was pretty awful. I'm going to give him some time to adjust to the new routine and if it's still going on I'm going to look for a play therapist for him.
