Once again, I am behind, so Now is my opportunity to get caught up. Like most people, instead of setting new year resolutions, I have decided to make monthly goals, and see how good I am about competing them. Here are my goals for the month of January. 1. Write Thank you letters to:  Mom, Dad, Ricky, Derek, Tamara At the new church we have started attending, they are doing the same thing, each month they will present a "Challenge" and you have the whole month to complete the challenge.

Separation Anxiety for Parents

-
We have all heard that kids get separation anxiety when they have to leave their parents and it can become a big deal. I remember when Derek started daycare and he had really bad anxiety and was constantly upset. I thought it was from all the changes that were happening to him at once, and I am sure some of that was the case, but Derek was struggling with separation anxiety.  I also had a hard time with it, with all the changes that took place, and we would both cry, but I assumed it would get better.

There have been many times I have had to leave my kids, and anytime I do, I immediately feel sick to my stomach, and want to cancel all my plans.  Of course, you are not able to do that, but I always cry and feel horrible about it. This past weekend, I left, with Derek to go visit...
