Daycare Day One

I dropped little Adelaide off at daycare this morning. She was kicking and smiling. She played with a toy, looked at the other babies, and looked at me as if to say, "It's ok mom! I'll be fine!" But it doesn't feel fine for the mom. It is so strange to be a mother, so far I just feel guilty any moment I'm not with her. Several co-workers and Facebook friends had words of encouragement that really got me through the day. One even checked on her when she dropped her own sons off at daycare (we go to the same one). I received a gift today from one co-worker - the cute lion hat that she made, thanks, Andrea! Look at how tired she is - daycare tired Addie out. She hasn't slept so much in ages! :)
