School

This is from the kid that cried everyday, all day the first two weeks of daycare!

On Sunday afternoon, Cullen and I went outside to write with sidewalk chalk and catch bugs. (We had been locked up since Thursday)We had been outside only for a few minutes when Cullen went to the truck and asked to go to school. I explained that no one was at school. He tried very hard to open the locked door and continued to insist that he go to school, now. All this and named each of his friends at school, teachers and one of the directors. I tried to explain to him that it was his days to play with mommy and daddy, and if he felt better he could go back to school tomorrow. He sat on the ground, put his little hand over his mouth and began to cry! Think fast...

Cullen, would you like a popsicle? Yes! All the drama was over. Tears and crying stopped. He hopped up and said, "This way, Mama!"

Junk will distract them everytime...
