Hurricane Julia

So a Hurricane Julia is stirring out in the Atlantic. So I thought why not blog about my own Hurricane Julia.

Lots of changes have went on with her since I last blogged. Last week she started Mother's Day Out. That has been stressful on both of us. She is having some serious seperation anxiety issues and it's breaking my heart. Today was a little bit better but she is definately not being as receptive as everyone thought she would be. I mean, she's a social butterfly, more curious than George himself and I can't keep up with her at Gymboree...but I guess when I'm not around she's having some issues of feeling safety maybe? It is breaking my heart but hopefully she will feel safe and comfortable over the next few weeks.

She is starting to do more things that really make me realize she's getting it. She mumbles "thank you" if you give her something, will pick up her shoes and put them at the bottom of the stairs with the rest of the shoes, puts her sippy cups in the cabinet....lots of little things.

Ya know motherhood is such a rollercoaster of ups and downs. After leaving MDO heartbroken inside and feeling like Julia is  missing the curve when it comes to becoming part of a structured environment, she comes home and shows me she gets life and how things work and that she is on top of the game BUT maybe just doesn't want to be trapped in or restrained maybe? Maybe I should start looking at Montossori schools as opposed to the traditional? Maybe she gets the vibe that her teachers aren't as laid back as her momma (Yes I am so laid back when it comes back to mommyhood).

Ok, Julia's up, blogging time is up.
