its amazing what tradition can teach us all.
3rd year of bible school, second at stp. boys did wonderfully with seperating and mabel really showed her strength in attending this first sesssion. we all stayed for an hour monday, i helped on tuesday and mabel made it unitl 11 without me, and today, wednesday, she went into her room, got busy, and i left without incident.
monday she stood frozen as a statue in the corner without her usual smile for a good 20 minutes. tuesday i saw her play games, but secretly felt great that she needed a mommy hug that last hour, all while declaring "mommy i had SOOOOOOO much fun"! and today she has shown me how amazing and wonderful she is all on her own. she has never been away from me in a building or organized activity. i think preschool in the fall is going to have her bloosoming in ways that will amaze us all.
