Tim took the day off and said we could put Barney in school and we could do whatever i chose. I couldn't bring myself to leave the baby in school so i decided we'd all go to the zoo. It was a good day. Barney gawked at the different animals, pointed, screamed "tiger" "zoo" "bird" "lizard" "turtle" and his final word was "nap" and fell asleep in his pram.
I really wish everyday could be filled with the same excitment and joy. Broke my heart to send him back to school today. The principal told me not to let him bring any more toys to school as he gets more insecure. I thought being able to share his toys would make him stronger. More and more i feel i need to be there to be around to teach him. I brought him home after sending tim to work and spent time just reading and watching "bob the builder", having breakfast, getting dressed slowly and enjoying the time getting ready. We got to school and he still cried. sigh.
Amazing this little boy would not let his daddy roll him forward if mummy wasn't beside him at the zoo. He'd want to hold my hand as we walked to the next animal exhibit. Maybe 4 hours is too long..sigh
