busy d

Dylan,

The folks at school say you're "busy". Always scrambling hither and yon, playing and exploring. It's really nice to know not only that you've made yourself comfortable in those new surroundings quickly, but also that you're especially inquisitive and high-energy in the eyes of people who have a lot more data to compare you against than do I.

You've also bonded very quickly with Shirley (your primary caregiver at school). When you got tired, you'd fuss when she left the room, and settle down when she returned.

Fostering your ability to build trusting relationships was high on our "Parents' To-Do" list. Check.

You also didn't cry when we left you there Monday morning, and didn't cry for Mommy until you saw her through the window when she came to pick you up in the evening.

We're off to a very good start.

Dad
