My Heart Outside My Chest

I just dropped Keegan off at daycare. I cried a little when I first got in the car. But then I was okay. Tom is so not worried which helps me feel better. I know we picked a good place, I just love him so much.
I stayed with him there for two hours and watched the routine and the other kids. I let his teacher change and feed him. Right now he is in a room with toddlers but on Monday, when the new babies show up, they will put him in the infant room.
I always think he looks so big but not next to those guys. But he seemed relaxed and enjoyed exploring. Now if I can only stop thinking about the look on his face as I left. Not sad, just unbelievably trusting.

I am dreading the day Rachel has to start daycare...I know I will need to do a few practice runs before I actually go back to work. Luckily, Hubby will be the one actually bringing her, since I will have to be at work earlier than he will-I will get the joy of seeing her smile at me when I go to pick her up. But I know my first week back at work, I am going to be a crying mess, worrying about her.
