Tears today

I could see that she wasn't happy from the minute she woke up. And after my shower this morning, Freyja walked into the bathroom and said through her tears 'I don't want to go to school today'.

I guess I should have expected it after the excitement of the first day. But of course it was all fine. I picked her up at 1.30 and peeked through the classroom door to see her sitting on the mat, with all the other children. She was happy to see me and again said that she wasn't quite ready to leave!

I was a bit sad today too. I really missed her. And I felt a bit awkward standing at the school gates and wished that some of my friends were there with me. As much as I like the school and the teacher, my feelings are still that I will move her to my 1st choice if a place comes up this term.
