Evan's first day went well. Ray and I dropped him off at his classroom and he was ready to go in right away. I called him over and told him to give me a hug and almost cried but I stayed strong and then told him to say bye to Ray. At first he just said bye dad but then Ran over and gave Ray a big hug. Then he went in and started playing and we left. Grace was really upset. She started crying because she didn't want to leave Evan. We told her we'd come back for him and that we had snacks and a juice box for her in the car and that she could watch Tangled and spend time with mommy and daddy by herself. When we came to pick Evan up, his teacher said that he had a really great day and that he did fine and made new friends. When he saw us though he ran to me and jumped in my arms. He buried his face in my neck and looked tearful. He was really quiet. We asked him what was wrong and he said he just missed us so much. When we got to the car we asked him about his day and what he did. He said he thought he had a fun day. When we asked him if he was excited to go back Thursday he said he didn't think he wanted to go because he'd miss us too much. Although I reminded him that he didn't miss us today until we came to get him and that he had fun. Hopefully he'll be happy to go back.
