Get on the Bus, Gus.....

Need I say more?

Yesterday was a huge milestone. Probably more for me than for Kainoa. Well...it was pretty big for him too. Not the traditional ones (smiling, walking, teeth, etc) but significant nonetheless.....Yesterday was the first time that Kainoa stayed with someone other than family. Our friend and neighbor, Katrina, has three beautiful little ones and she graciously agreed to take care of Kainoa while I went to work for a few hours. It wasn't as big a deal as I thought it would be...of course it helped that it was Katrina and I have such trust in and respect for her, and it was especially wonderful to walk in her house and see Kainoa and Katrina's two boys playing and he was having a grand time! It did a mama's heart good. As we approach starting day care part time next month, this definitely helped with my anxiety.

My boys loved having Kainoa over and I was so glad that he felt at ease with us. I'll have to show you the little bit of video I took of them all dancing to the Wiggles. Too cute!

I'm glad his first stay with friends went so well. He will do great at daycare. I am sure of it!

Definitely a milestone and what luck to have a trusted friend nearby to watch little Kainoa for you. I love the photo, what a cutie pie!
