> Just chiming in to let you know YOU ARE NOT ALONE! You are not abnormal!!!!! It's worse pain than being separated from a lover, I think :-)! My daughter is 8 and your post brought it all back, that horrible first week or so when she went to daycare and I went to work - cried all the way there and was heart-stoppingly (is that a word?!?) happy when I saw her again! Picking her up from afterschool care is still the best part of my day! It does get less painful, of course, after a few years (ha! just kidding, it'll be sooner than that!).

> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Hi, Lynne! Thanks for posting :). I really enjoy hearing everyone's perspective and it truly does help to know I'm not alone.
The best part of the day is absolutely the pick-up. Today, I walked into the daycare room N was in and he had just come in from playing outside. His cheeks were still pink, he was a little sweaty and had bright pink chalk on his nose. What a beautiful sight :). Gives me something to look forward to tomorrow afternoon.
Thanks for understanding. It was quite helpful to read and remember everyone's posts throughout the day today.
