Yesterday, I left T at school for an hour and a half by just walking out casually from her classroom. She bawled for a long, long time but because I only heard it, I was OK. At the end of the day, she was all swollen eyed but smiling. And even said she would come back to big school.
Today, without warning, two teachers unclawed her four limbs from my body, and as I walked out, her arms reached out to me as though she was drowning, her eyes terrified with fear as she screamed, “MUMMY, DON’T LEAVE ME!!!!!”
As I descended the stairs, my eyes watered and I wondered if I was doing the right thing. She is only 2 and a half after all. The teachers naturally assured me that it is normal. During playground time, I managed to spy on her and she was happily playing away, cackling with teachers and friends, bouncing furiously on the trampoline, picking jasmine flowers for a teacher and most importantly, smiling. Her face told me she was genuinely having fun.
However, towards the later part of the day (after 3 hours), she turned all weepy again so the teachers called me in for an early dismissal. She ran to me, hugged and held me as though it was our last day together. She now says she doesn’t want to go back to big school and regards her teachers as bad people (the ones who took Mummy away).
My saving grace is that at least she is adjusting better than I expected, which was to scream for three hours and vomit. Phew!
Tomorrow is another new day…..
