Breaks My Heart Twice a Week



Tommy has started school twice a week for a half day at a time. We thought he was ready, and thought that it would help his developement with people other than his parents providing him direction.

The adjustment has not happened as fast as we had anticipated. Each day it breaks my heart as he crys when we leave him for the day. His second day at school he told his teacher that all he had to do is go outside and call his daddy and that I would be there to get him. The teacher asked me if I worked close to the school, I now know why.

As we have been trying to get him acclimated to the change, I laminated a picture of both Tommy and I, as well as Mommy and Aaron. That has seemed to help, but even today as I dropped him off he started to cry. I told him that he would be fine, he cryfully responded with "I don't want to be fine".

It is no reflection on the teachers at Sunset, but all Tommy wants is to go to his Church School and see Miss Debbie (Debbie Leglu). Here are some pics from his first day of school.
