Will it be like this for long?

Whenever I hear this song I think of our life right now. Is he right, will this only last a week or two?
Dylan started Creative Play this week. He is there 3 hours a day and it lasts for 2 weeks. The mornings are hard. VERY hard. Dylan has NEVER had to go with someone that he doesn't know. He goes to Grandma Packard's while we work. If we ever need a babysitter it is, my parents, sister, or my cousins and aunt and uncle. He cries. He says he just misses me when he's there. Oh, times like this I wish he couldn't talk and tell me these things. Having your baby (I know he's 3, but he is my one and only, so he IS my baby still!) cry and say they just miss you is the most heart breaking thing to hear. Part of me wants to just hold him and keep him in my arms forever and not make him go. But I know that he needs to go, and me letting him get his way will make matters even worse. The good thing is once he is there he stops crying and he has fun. He is just so stinkin' smart that he is trying to get out of going. I have to keep being the tough guy and make him go. Times like this I really wish Seth were home in the mornings so he could deal with it!

So, tomorrow we will do it again. Maybe I will get lucky and Dylan will be fine and want to go. If not, I will take him and drive away trying hard not to cry myself!! Then I will come home and count down the minutes until I get to go pick him up and hear all about his day at school!

Oh no! :( I'm so sorry. I have a friend who's son cries every time she picks him up because he doesn't want to leave preschool, I think that might be worse??? I know it's hard but he's crying because he loves you so much and you guys have so much fun together, and although hard it is a great thing? Thankfully he gets to go to the same building as you for preschool, that will hopefully make that a bit easier!?
