...is about the size of a bowling ball. My face is red and puffy, my head is pounding and I've been crying on and off for more than two hours... Philip started preschool today! He did great at first- exploring the room, meeting new friends, clapping and smiling. But then I had to go to the front office to take care of some room mom business and he started screaming his head off crying mama when he saw me leave the room. It was like someone was pulling my heart right out and stomping on it... I hated to leave him that way! But then by the time I was done (about the time it takes to tie your shoes) Philip had already stopped crying when I went to peak through the window at him.
... And then the crying started the moment my feet hit the parking lot... it seemed like the hardest thing I have done as a parent so far watching my little angel grow up. I just couldn't believe how fast this last year and a half have gone by. Before I know it he will be driving a car, going off to college and calling to ask for money! After trying to collect myself in the car, I decided to drive to Chick-fil-A. Philip and I are regulars there so of course I got, "where's that precious baby?" answered with me crying! Then I went to pick up Tex from the vet and three strangers asked if I was ok... three! Then off to Harris Teeter to get some groceries, again where we are regulars. "Where's that little smiling Philip?" more crying. I called about half an hour ago and they said Philip is doing great! However, I can hardly wait until I get to go pick him up - in two hours! Let's just hope this gets easier...
