Piya's Perspective

We’re up to day 3 at daycare and Simeon seems to be adjusting quite nicely (tho I’m sure he misses Carrie and her undivided attention :)).  I was a bit shocked when I went to pick him up yesterday and discovered spikey hair.  Apparently one of the daycare staff I hadn’t yet met decided to play with his hair – a little lotion and water and poof…spikey hair boy.

Maybe it’s just me…maybe it shouldn’t have bothered me at all, but I was a bit annoyed.  I won’t go so far as to say upset or angry – just annoyed.  In fact, if it had been Carrie or another good friend, I probably would have simply laughed and found it adorably cute.  But I’m still getting used to the whole daycare thing — somewhat strangers watching my boy — and would have been more apt to laugh if they’d asked beforehand whether or not I cared if they put something in his hair.  As soon as we got home it was up to the bath to get the sticky, smelly lotion out.
