I have been spoiled. Keyana and Kaiden were both children that didn't mind being away from mommy, and when first introduced to nursery, ran in without looking back. So, I figured it must be in the blood and thought Matthew would be the same way. Boy was I wrong! His first visit was right at 18 months, and he wouldn't play with the other kids, wouldn't talk to the grown-ups, and barely wanted to play with the toys unless he was in mommy's lap. Well, I've been working with him, and started slowly sneaking out for a few minutes longer every week. Finally, I'm am proud to announce, I was only in there with him for 5 minutes this week! Wahooo!!!!
On a side note: Kaiden began in Sunbeams this year, and has a hard time adjusting from nursery to primary. The first few weeks, I either had to send him to the nursery, sit with him in his class, or take him to mine. Even so, it didn't completely stop the meltdowns. Well, I've also been working with him on getting him to stay in his own class, and this week he had no meltdowns, and stayed in his class the whole time! I made it through 1/2 of Sunday School and all of Relief Society, for the first time in almost a year! Now, I sure hope I didn't jinx myself by celebrating this early.
