This was a tough week for me. I started back at work and Michael went to daycare at Just Us Kids. Monday was very hard, but we made it though. I had to do my best to keep from completely breaking down and sobbing. But the ladies at the daycare were so kind and really tried to reassure me that Michael would be okay. They also told me that I was welcome to come over anytime to visit or feed Michael. So Greg has been packing our lunches and we have gone over everyday at lunch. This way we can eat together and I can feed Michael. It really has made it better. Knowing that I can see him in just three or four hours has made it a lot easier to leave him in the morning.
I also received a surprise on Monday when Michael sent me flowers. They were beautiful and the card said, "don't worry Mom, I'm doing just fine". That made me feel better and I was quite impressed that he was able to order them all by himself. However, I have a suspicion that he got some help from his Daddy, when I saw the order show up on Greg's credit card. :)
Well, Michael has already melted the hearts of all of his teachers. Everyday, they give us a report card that tells us when he naps, eats, and has his diaper changed. They also tell us what his mood was. Everyday they mark that he was happy in both the morning and afternoon. One of his teachers has already offered to babysit him because she said they really like each other. As hard as it is to be away from him, it really makes me feel better to know that he is being cared for by such nice people.
Well, I better get to bed. Michael will be waking up soon...:)

He's so adorable, Ashlee! It sounds like the daycare he's at is wonderful. 3-4 hours isn't that long of a time and it is wonderful you can work it out so it can be that way. What a wonderful babyy-sending you flowers :). We think about you a lot and this is so fun to read up on what is going on and see pictures!
Jos says that he thinks Michael is a "very cute little baby!"
Love you guys!
I finally learned how to get this done so I can say some things about a very important little man in our lives. As your Daddy pointed out over Xmas, " You are so handsome because of your parents good looks"! I can see why you smile all the time... with that joker as a Dad. Haven't seen you in forever , and I mean that, for whomever is taking pictures. How am I supposed to brag out here in the Southwest about you if I don't have any pictures. Can't wait to see you and your Mom and Dad again.Have you been chipping and putting yet with the new clubs. Remember, the short game is what counts.
