Ups and Downs

It has been a rough week in our house.  The first week of preschool coupled with longer work hours for me plus some work-related issues that were less than pleasant all made for a lot of ups and downs.

There was sadness at having to spend so much time away from each other 

 which boiled over into anger at times

and caused a bit of shyness in our new environments

but our long hours apart made us that much happier to see each other at the end of the day -- resulting in lots of happy squeals ...

And even more hugs and snuggles

    What a cute post- especially that last picture. I am sorry your week had some rough parts! I'll be thinking of you all and hoping for a better week this week!

  2. Thanks Leslie! First weeks of school can be tough! Looks like your kiddos are adjusting pretty well :). It's always nice to have the support of a mom who "knows" :)

  3. Millie had discovered the web cam on this particular morning and was shouting out poses for us to do for our pictures -- it just happened to turn out that the poses she was suggesting were reflective of all the emotions she had been going through last week and were a great way to tell the story :).
