All I've got....

A sincere thank-you to all who commented or sent emails with good thoughts about this day of huge transition for me and my girl. It has meant more than I can adequately tell you. The day would have been even more difficult without those kindnesses.

We both survived. However, my mama always told me if I have nothing nice to say then say nothing at all. So, here is my commentary on how things went after about 3PM for the two of us:





I'll be around again soon. I just need to take a little time to wrap my head around a few things. This too shall pass.

Ok, so I am off a day.... I thought it was all going down tomorrow. Thinking of you guys anyway. Transition is HARD, never underestimate that. Wishing you all the best for this PROCESS.

I have been thinking about you all day, wondering how things were going.

I'm sending you (((((hugs))))) and many good thoughts.

Hugs Pipo. Come back when you can. You and the Wing take care.

You did it. The hardest day of your life is behind you.

That kidlet of yours is awfully flippin' cute!

I was thinking of you. Miss Syri had her first full day at daycare and we all survived. I'm anticipating day two to be a little tougher. So sorry to hear you had a not so nice day. I hope things get better.

At least your sense of humor is still intact.

My heart goes out to you. I'm on the same boat, but haven't had to make the transition yet. I'm hoping that I can learn some from you on how to best deal with this all when you come back.

Great big hugs to you!

Transitions, as with all change, takes time. This too shall pass!

Hugs...I remember dropping A off those first few weeks. Actually, I made Daddy do it after the first day...they told me for the first two weeks she literally sat in a rocking chair clutching her pillow from home ALL day : ( I am still sad when I think about it... I hope the Wing is doing better although I am sure you aren't even if she is.

I am thinking of you...

Luna said...

Thinking of you both. *Hugs*

Ani said...

Oh, poor girls. But, you said it, this too shall pass.
Hope today was better than yesterday.

Polar Bear said...

I've been thinking about you both.

If you need anything...
...you know.

~ Alison said...

I'm right here (in the trenches) with you - & some days just flat-out suck. No doubt about that.

Please don't hesitate to give me a buzz if u need anything at all . . .

Jboo said...

Sending good thoughts too. I remember how hard the transition was for my girl (and me too). It will get better. Take it easy.

Hang in there. The workin' momma gig is tough but it gets better and it is doable (even enjoyable once you get your groove on). Trust me, it does get better!

Special K said...

I'm not looking forward to these tough days. Too bad we can't just be SAHM's. Oh wait.. there's no other parent to go to work so I guess that ain't gonna fly for either one of us. :P

Hugs to you and lots of postive vibes being sent your way.

Abby's Mom said...

Big Hugs too you! I so remember that time! It was hard on the both of us!!! Then when she moved up to the next level more stress but less intense and shorter lived. As I know you have been told already! It does get better and Abby loves it there now. People telling me that then tho didn't make me feel any better. So sending you my sympathy :)

OziMum said...

The wing (and YOU!) is WAAAAY more important than us!!!

((hugs)) You're a great Mama, and the Wing is a great daughter... you'll be have your mojo on in no time! :)

Donna said...

I know it's tough...but everything will be fine eventually. Hang in there, mommy!

~Kristen said...

Sorry the first day was so rough... like you said "this too shall pass"

I'll be sending good thoughts your way... waiting on your return!

Tammie said...

I wish this transition was easier on you & The Wing. Eventually, it will be better. In the meantime, we're sending you huge hugs!

We'll be waiting for you.

I don't know if you remember how excruciating the transition was with Eliza (from my blog posts). It was probably one of the hardest things I have ever done...because it was so bad for her. 2 years later she really likes school (for the most part) and it is no longer excruciating). Good luck.

Your right it will pass, I promise. I just showed my husband the "Groovy" pics and he thought they were just too cute!!! We both think she is just adorable. Have a good weekend.

Love, Kristy

Shannon said...

That is my daily mantra. It's a continual roller coaster, isn't it?! Enjoy the good 'cause it's magical. =)
