no tears

I know most of you like pictures, but tonight I am just blogging my proud mom moment today. For those of you that do not know, we usually have a very tough time with Lucy at Church, she wants nothing to do with going into the childcare room, NOTHING. We have tried several approaches. Today, because of my huge belly, I had Lucy walk all the way into church and her room. Once we got in the room, she looked up at me and said, "Mommy, want to play?" I could hardly believe my ears and let her take me by the hand. Once she started showing interest in some of the toys, I backed away...nope, she caught me and started screaming, but I wasn't giving up. She went back for some toys and was building a block tower with a volunteer and I snuck out. I went back a few times to check, expecting to peek in the window and see her hysterical, but there she was tear free. The second time I went back, a volunteer found me coming down the hall and told me Lucy was doing great. Lucy asked the woman to wash her pacifier, which made me smile and know that she was doing okay since she asks us to do that all the time at home. I was so proud and for that moment I felt like I did something right as a Mom. :) I know, next week we could be back to kicking and screaming, but hey, one step at a time right? Hope you all had a super weekend and enjoy your last week of May....pools open this week, YAHOOOO!!!
