An About-Face

The storyline for Week One of school was the marked improvement for Jacob.  He started the week in his new class and consistently cried when he first saw the door to his new room and the crying didn't stop when Mom/Dad left.  He took short naps, maybe 30-45 minutes for the first half of the week.  When we came to pick him up in the afternoon, he was still in a generally bad mood.  However, by Thursday/Friday....that all changed.  He began walking into class happy, had no problems with separation, improved his napping, and we even began getting glowing notes from Ms. Christina (his teacher).  By the next Monday, they said he was ready to move to his nap mat so we hauled it in.  Since that point, he has been the first kid to sleep every day and has consistently slept for the entire two hours.
