Beebsie Weebsie Puddin' & Peebsie Goes to School

Doesn't that title just say it all?  Blake did well for his first day at Soapstone today.  He was a Stage 5 clinger all morning but didn't even cry when Miss Debbie pryed him off of me at drop off.  When I arrived to pick him up, Miss Ann was holding him and both teachers said he had a good day but that he got very upset when the first Mommy came and picked up one of his classmates.  Seeing his face full of grief stricken angst when he spotted me coming to get him just about killed me : (  Miss Ann handed him over, he gripped tight, buried his face in my shoulder and sobbed - no doubt letting it all out!  Poor little weebsie - this is  a HUGE transition for him.  Knowing him, though, we'll have to drag him out of there by next week!  I have no idea what kind of response we'll get when it's time to go back on Friday! 

So Glad to Hear This!

As you can imagine, I'm hyper-aware of any prescription medications that come near anyone in my family these days, especially my children.  We put off using steroid creams for as long as we could with Devlyn for his eczema but this past Spring - it became necessary.  So glad to see the results of this study!  We haven't had to use the steroid creams in a few months but at least I'll feel better about it if we need to use them again in the future.

Unbelievable

When I see numbers like this my brain just comes to a screeching halt.  I did a freelance project this Spring that opened me up to the intricacies of the App development world and monetizing them, etc.  The many fingers of Google are fascinating and their business model(s) blow my mind.  It sure is fun trying to follow along though!  : )
