Vibes for OzzieDaughter

[OZZIE4DUKE]

Vibes to my daughter, whom I love dearly, as she enters a new phase of her life today - Working Mother!

Her first day back teaching since Ruth was born. And Ruth's first day without her mother there to take care of her. But she has the best of care - her former apartment-mate who is a full time nanny for another family in the area, and takes Ruthie with her as she heads over to her regular gig!

Mama vibes!

Sounds like a fine arrangement. Hope it continues happily for a LONG time.

Love and prayers to OzzieDaughter and OzzieGranddaughter as they enter this new phase of their lives.

An important transition is evolving for this young family, but I have confidence that it will continue to develop well.

Vibes, indeed.

Interesting story about me: When I was an infant, my mother was still a classroom teacher, teaching gifted students in grades 2-5. After her maternity leave ended, rather than get a nanny or send me to daycare, she took me to school with her. I spent an entire school year in a playpen in the corner of her classroom. She got to be with me all day long, and she incorporated me as a part of some lessons. She also credits this early experience with some of the academic talents I've been blessed with.
My feelings about it all? Meh. I slept through most of it. ;)

Many vibes and prays to Ozzie's daughter. I'm sure this will be much harder on her than Ruth but she will do just fine.

[DukieInKansas]

Vibes to all the Ozzie family as they make this transition. And a couple of hugs, too.

[shereec]

Well, by now she's made it through the first day. Continued good wishes for a painless transition. And although I'm sure she doesn't need this to appreciate her little miracle, perhaps OzzieDaughter's reunion with Ruth each day will make the time together that much sweeter.

Vibes and prayers for her successful 1st day!!!! I know that must be hard for her, but having met your daughter, she is definitely up to the challenge!!!!!

I've been derelict in my vibe duty of late, but here goes nothing:



And one more for little Ruth!

[DukePA]

How did they do??? I remember the 1st day I took Josh to daycare. He was 6 weeks old.

[windsor]

Let us know how they survived (baby probably did better than Momma!!!) I remember those days. It is a challenge.



Vibes for an easy transition.

I spent my first formative years in a playpen in the corner of a beauty shop. As I grew, it became various customer's laps.(the ones that had laps)
Never did develop a desire to style hair.

Oh yeah! I hope all went well.

Best vibes I've got are never ending for you guys. That's a truly tough thing to do.....leave that little one for those first whole days at a time.

When my daughter put her first one in day care, I was over at that place every single day taking him out for a walk or giving him his lunch or making sure he was able to sleep at nap time. I was the one with the problem! Finally, I just kept him myself! My friends all said I was nuts to give up all that tennis and bridge at the time in my life when I had earned a break. But, he's in college now and I'd never change a thing. I know. I'm just nuts. But, I bet Beth would do the same if she could!

Love, Ima

Good luck.

Yeah, she hates being ~4 hours away. When OzzieDaughter was born, we were only 5 minutes away from Beth's mom (we still are), and the family friend that kept OzzieDaughter during the day for her first 4 years.

OzzieDaughter says the second day went fine too!
