Preschool & Splotches

Shew!  What a week this has been...I am finally getting around to blogging about preschool. 

Monday (her first day) went great.  Patrick & I both carried her.  

Leaving home

Daddy & Mallory at school

This was the best I could do at getting a pic of her in front of school by herself.  This girl will.not.stand.still.for.a.second!

As soon as she became occupied playing & looking around at all the new things, we snuck out of the room.  I called to check on her later, & got a good report that she only had one brief crying spell & had only asked for mommy a few times. 

First preschool crafts

Wednesday was even better.  Patrick dropped her off & she took off playing.  I called her teacher half-way through the morning (Mimi Betty - love her!) & all was well.

I met her babysitter there to pick her up at lunch & asked how things had went.  Her teacher said, "She did really good, but does she break out in red splotches on her neck & chest sometimes?" 

Ummm, no.  But, Ohhhh poor baby I thought, bless her heart she is just like Mommy there :(  She will have to deal with that whenever she is nervous, embarassed, mad or upset.  {I can vividly remember my first boyfriend asking me what was wrong with me, when he came to pick me up on a date.  I was broke out in hives all on my neck & chest from being nervous!}  This terrible trait is going to lead to wearing turtlenecks to every interview, public speaking situation, first date, & any big test my little girl faces.  TRUST ME, I KNOW.  I had to take medication {along with a glass of wine} on my wedding day to make it down the aisle hive free. 

Poor thing, why did she have to inherit her Mommy's anxiety issues?!?
