For the first 6 weeks of preschool, Charlie went joyfully to school. Was practically out of the house before my pajamas were off. I was so glad and thrilled that this was how school was going to be. Then about 2 weeks ago, I got a phone call that Charlie was very sad and seemed under the weather. He had a little diarrhea the day before, but seemed fine. So I picked him up, but he was fine at home. Ever since, he has been sad at school. Not tantrum when I leave, but on the virge of crying the whole time. He whimpers and tries so hard to be brave. This normally goes on for the whole 2.5 hours he is there.  Has anyone else delt with this? Fine for awhile and then sad at preschool?

Hello all! We are entering our 4th month in our new home. We have settled well into our new house, have made some minor changes but overall we are quite set. Charlie is loving preschool. He seems to be learning a lot and often sings us a song learned, or at least tells us the snack he had. Ha! Today apparently he ate the orange rind And all. Nice. I guess I never taught him you are not suppose to eat the rind. Carrie is as sweet and darling as ever. She mostly sleeps through the nights. Normally it is 2 nights where she sleeps 11-12 hrs and then 2 nights where she wakes up once around 3am. At least it is a predictable pattern. She crawls like crazy and pulls up and likes to chase anyone around the room. She eats finger foods extremely well. She is an absolute delight. Love her and I love putting cute outfits on her. Adam is doing well. Work is super busy, so that is good. I have joined the church band at Good Sheppherd Lutheran. I love this church and the band members are great. Really...
