Working Mummy for the first time!

Valentines Day marked an important start of our life.
I started work and Alaric starts his full day school, his day without mummy, away from home.
Lots of preparation done for his school. Speaking to teachers and principal, understanding the schedule and Alaric's habits. Bringing his favorite plush and pillow and blanket and mittens and many many more so he feels more at home. Food was another concern so I also brought along some snacks for him -biscuits, bread, fruit bar, cereal, etc.
For the first day, work was ok as I started with half day for the month of Feb and will be going full force in March. Alaric did cried at goodbye again. He cried like it's the first day of school. But he settled down quickly I left. He bath with little struggle in school as he wanted to bring along his plush with him to bath. Maybe he felt more secure with his plush then. Lunch was a full bowl and that made me so happy. He slept on his own without much patting and no carrying. Although it's only for a short hour comparing to 3 hours nap at home, I felt he did well. I picked him at 330pm on the first day. He burst into tears when he saw me. Clanged to me like a koala. I missed him too.
Day 2 was as good as day 1. But lunch wasn't good as he took only 1/3 of his lunch. Thank goodness for the biscuits. Anyway I realized that he dun fancy pasta, ESP red sauce ones.
Day 3 was good as he slept for 2 hours for his nap. Lesser crying at goodbye. No crying when I picked him at 440pm. His milk intake and meal was moderate in school too.

My first Valentine's gift from Alaric!
