Tomorrow is Ethan's first day of summer camp here in Colorado. Basically, preschool during the summer and they do fun things. He will go 3 days a week this week and then Monday and Wedneday next week because we will be going to VA. I am a bit sad, because these are new people that I don't know that will be caring for my child and I will not be there. It took me a lot to place him in preschool last year. I cried like a baby and it took me a lot to trust another to care for him! My biggest concern is there is this strange man that works there ... up at the front desk that I will be keeping my eye on. In addition, I will MAKE SURE the teacher knows that NOBODY takes Ethan to the restroom, he goes by himself! There are pottys in the class, so they need to let him have his privacy .. and he knows that he is to go alone. Still, I can't help but be worried about what happens when I am not there to protect him. I know I need to loosen up, but I wonder if mothers of abused children wished they would have been a little bit more overbearing! I am a mom, I worry. That is my job!

It's always nerve racking to leave your kiddos with someone...and yes..I'm sure parents of children who have been abused have regrets..and it's always a good idea to be aware of everything that surrounds your children..on the flipside though..do you want them growing up filled with fear?? They'll figure out soon enough how crappy our world is...try not to rush that realization.
