Diana:

Whereas you are experiencing separation anxiety from dropping Caelan off at 
daycare for the first time today, I am experiencing relief at dropping my 1 
yr. 
old daughter off at daycare today :-)  While it's been nice to spend two 
extra "snow" days with her at home, she actually gets bored with Ken and I at 
home!  She hangs on us day and night, fusses and whines, wants our full 
attention every second of the day and really acts like she has no interest in 
any of her toys at home.  Today, as I walked down the long hallway to the 
young 
toddler classroom with her in my arms, she bounced up and down with this huge 
smile on her face.  She knew where she was and was so excited to be there!  
She 
loves her teachers, all the other kids her age (12-18 month olds), the music 
and the art and crafts.  It's nice to know she's in good hands and enjoys 
herself while we're apart.  It makes leaving her everyday a lot easier!
