June was busy to say the least. One significant happening was that Kuku started Play School. While I was heaving a huge sigh
of relief on one side, I was also all senti and ready to cry when he
was all dressed to go. The first day was a dream. Apparently, he did not
cry at all after the initial shock when he realized we were not coming
in with him. The teachers were so full of praise about his stoic persona that I could not believe my luck. Well, it lasted all of 1 day :D
That is a snap of him on his first day at play school before he walked in. Before the drama, I would have to say.
June was spent in tears, emotional hugs, falling sick, all achieved with a rapid frequency hitherto unheard of.
July, I started to slowly get back to a routine and was in office 4 days a week. This proved to be too much for Kuku. He looked at both actions as punishments - he was being banished to playschool and I was not at home when he came back.
So, July, was also spent in tears, and you know the rest. To say that those two months were extremely stressful for all of us would be an understatement. I wondered if I should quit. I also wondered if Kuku should be removed from the current playschool. I knew that Kuku moving to a new school was going to be nerve-wracking for both of us- worse than the current one. I was not sure if my quitting would really change things for all of us. The Jury is still out on that though!
August was better than June and July. Kuku kinda settled - not great but better than before. According to his teachers, he participates in most of the activities.
That is a picture of him on blue day playing with a blue ball :)
He still cries unpredictably and throws tantrums left, right, and center. He is also into behaving quite irrationally - I know, I know - He is a baby. There are days when I really doubt it :P There are days when I want to lie down flat and kick my feet in the air shrieking like a banshee whenever things do not go exactly as I want them to :)
Anyway, now I am back. Hopefully, I may manage one more post before August is done! Well, that is hoping for a lot :)
