Hello again. Welcome to my blog. If you've been following along thus far you've probably heard that I've started back at work. It's been slightly hard being away from my little rose in the mornings. I miss her talk times mostly.
She is in the best possible care she can be - in the loving care of her Daddy, who takes such great care of her. Yesterday, he came home with this awesome "Ocean World" fisher price play mat. She loves it.
I don't think she even knows I'm gone, which is fantastic. By the time I get home, she's had two feedings and is onto her mid-morning nap. She's so peaceful. By the time she wakes, she needs to eat again. By the late afternoon, she is ready for play. Play consists of 10-15 minutes of laying on her back and talking, watching her mobile, swinging in her swing, or sitting in her musical boppy.
Today she made me hysterical. If I'm wearing a tank top and she's resting on my shoulder, she immediately starts sucking on my shoulder. It's the funniest thing.
So, yes I'm back at work in the daycare with 5-6 babies in my classroom. From my experience working with kids I have had so many theories about parenting - theories about not "spoiling" and sticking to a schedule. The truth is, every little one is different. God didn't make all babies to be perfect replicas of each other learning at the same rate. He made us different, unique, and special. It's easy to say, "That parent does____", "I'll never____". When the time comes, and your faced with the most precious gift anyone could ever bestow to you, you tell me if you wouldn't sway from your predetermined theories.
=) That's all for now..
