preschool is getting better, not 100% w/o crying, but TONS better. preschool has roped me in to participate in the community helpers week. this is where members of the community (you coulda guessed that) come in and explain their job/what they do. today there was a 'ballon lady' (sorry, unsure of the appropriate title), there is a firerfighter and florist coming in. the teachers headr that i painted murals, and it was all over. :)

the wildlife on the golf course

that what???? besides the usually bunnies and birds and thangs, this week we were visited by geese! and 2 days later, not the usual 1, BUT 3 coyotes! eeeek!










So I had a particularly tough week emotionally. Quinn is still not comfortable with me leaving him at preschool. He screams and cries and clings to me as if he is being taken to an orphanage. Sigh. I leave him….so tough, but I know he is in good hands, and the teachers are so patient and kind. I call to check on him and he is of course fine. But I cry all the way home, In addition to this he has become so nasty. Just a rotten 3 year old at times. Other times, he is the sweetest kid in the world. But these things were really wearing on me this week and I had my self a few good crying sessions. I know that these things will pass. I know that it is a phase and he will grow out of this, and I will hopefully grow from this. But I must have patience. A LOT of patience. LOL!!!!

sweet boy...
