So much for separation anxiety

Dear Ben,

I'm so glad that you like your daycare providers. It makes me happy to see you smile and reach for Miss R. when I take you to school in the morning. It's fun to watch you sit among the pile of toys and laugh as you shake the noisemakers. It would make me very sad if you clung to me and cried when I dropped you off. However, it would be nice if you showed some interest in me after we get to daycare. It kind of hurts my feelings when I try to say goodbye and you either completely ignore me or cry to get back to the toys. Just sayin'...

Love Mommy

Sweetness sometimes runs away from me saying "no mommy" when I pick her up at the end of the day. Apparently she doesn't spend all day missing me like I do her. Kids sure are cruel...

My preschool-age kids loved our in-home sitter so much, they cried when *she* left at the end of the day. Don't worry; Mommy is who they will call for in the middle of the night.
