This past Sunday was the first time that we left Jay in the nursery at church. He was totally ready to go, it was me that kept saying "maybe next week". Well yesterday we finally took him and boy was it hard to leave him. I was tearing up at the thought of leaving my baby...but all the nice ladies in the nursery assured me they would page me if he had any troubles. John was there to hold my hand through it all too. He is such a sweet husband!
When we picked him up he had a great report! Jay played and had a bottle in the hour that we left him. They said he was very happy but they could tell that he missed me. Now I don't know how much of that last one is true, but it sure makes a mom feel good to hear such nice things about her baby! It felt so good to hold him when we picked him up. He was happy as can be and was talking up a storm! Also, miraculously he looked even older to me. I can't really explain it, but his face looked older and wiser. I love my big boy!
Maybe next week we will leave him longer and join back into our Sunday School. We'll see if I am brave enough to leave him for that long!

What a sweet story. I look forward to seeing all of you next week! Mom
They grow up fast, huh? If you leave him in there through Sunday School, you may be picking him up in a cap and gown!
