It has been hard dropping off Connor in the mornings.  After arriving at school, Connor is still happy as usual while walking to his classroom and dropping off his belongings.  We march together to the morning drop off room, but as soon as we arrive at the door, Connor stops and does not want to walk inside.  He immediately will start sobbing and burying his head in my shoulder.  He will not lift his head at all for me to say anything to him; the teacher eventually will take him away from me.  Connor will continue to cry very sadly and I will just have to say goodbye and leave quickly to shorten the agony.  Throughout the day, the teacher however has been reporting that Connor is doing great, and the report card said that he was either “happy” or “happy most of the day”.  Hopefully Connor will get more used to the new school and the drop off will get less depressing.

    On the other hand, Logan is doing great in new school.  Stuart said that Logan was not clingy at all this morning; he followed the teacher to go say hi and play with his classmate.  When Stuart and I went to pick him up after school, he was playing alongside with Alex and Logan did not seem to want to leave yet.  The teacher told me that Logan talked with her today and told her that he missed mommy and daddy.  When one of the teachers asked for his name, he answered “Logi” (his nickname form the other school).  The only concern Stuart and I had from today was that Logan barely ate his lunch; his apple package was not even opened.  We will need to find out tomorrow if the kids are receiving any assistance in getting started on their lunches.

    Logan had not mentioned about the old school since he left ‘last Friday, but we know that he must be missing his friends.  Last night when he and I were reading at bedtime, Logan was naming the characters in the book as each of us in the family, then he said one of them was Rohan and the other was Bar.  And this morning during their drive, out of the blue Logan asked Stuart if Rohan is at a new school too.  According to Vrinda (Rohan’s mom), Rohan did ok on the first day without Logan, but he was more quiet and told his mom that he did not see Logan all day.
