For the girls... Greta - First day back was great. She told me she missed her friends and I think she did. She ran right in, Westley gave her a big hug. They played outside. Painted. All kind of fun. When I came and picked her up, a huge smile and she came running to me. Small meltdown about leaving her blanket but minor in comparison to what I thought.
Lola - great first day. Everyone commented on all her smiles. Said she did great. She even napped in her crib for a full hour (the rest were littke cat naps).
For mama - it was hard. Easier than leaving Greta for the first time but still hard. Tears were shed. Almost felt it was harder leaving Greta or maybe it was that she was okay staying and not sad at all. But I guess this probably made it easier knowing she wanted to be there. And is reassuring that they are good to her. And Lola is just happy to be loved and that isn't hard to do.
My packing list
4 bottles - between 3 - 4 ounces (only used 3)
