Aubrey and I went and visited daycare today so I could take some supplies to them prior to Aubrey starting. It seems like a nice place and all of the teachers are super nice and loving, but I don't think any place will be perfect enough for our precious daughter. I just hope it is a good fit! Needless to say, I cried the minute we got back into the car thinking about having to go back to work and leave our baby with complete strangers. As someone once told me, isn't it crazy that you tell your kids never to talk to strangers, but then you leave your child in the care of a stranger at daycare? Yes, I trust the teachers and helpers and know they will do a great job, but it is still a very weird concept.
Going back to the crying, I kept telling myself to toughen up, most moms go through this; however, it didn't help. As soon as we got home, I scooped Aubrey out of her carseat and could not put her down for hours. Going back to work is definitely going to be harder than I thought. I am going to miss all of the daily Aubrey and Mommy bonding time! I think I took those first few weeks for granted, but I know the next couple of weeks will be spent never putting Aubrey down (unless we have to run errands...haha).
