Well, last week was my first week back at work. It went really well. Daniel enjoyed the two days (Mon and Tue) he spent with his Grandma and Grandpa (they enjoyed it equally). I really treasured the time we had together on my Wednesday off and reportedly really enjoyed himself at Day Care on Thurs and Friday. When I dropped him off on Thursday I put him on the floor and he immediately took a liking to a toy and I don't think he even noticed that I'd gone - which is exactly what I wanted (he has been in orientation there for three weeks before, so he was quite familiar with the place).

As for work......... did I even have time away???? I don't think I did. Nothing ever changes. I just get paid more now.......... thank goodness.

I don't feel as awful as I did when I originally posted. Everything really is alright and the social skills Daniel has already gained is just a phenomenon.......... I do treasure my Wednesdays off with him though - I have dubbed them "My Daniel Day"........ not Wednesday anymore.

Thanks to all who posted. You helped make me feel a lot better about the transition.
