My 3 year old's first day back at Mother's Day Out Here are some picture of Ava's first day back at Mother's Day Out. She is pouting in most of them, because she doesn't want to go. She is a mommy's girl and does not like to be away from me, not even with daddy! I could have sworn he cut the umbilical cord; but apparently her and I are still attached. She cried everyday last year when I would take her, I would literally be running out of the building as to not have to hear her. Then, no sooner than I get outside and peek in her classroom window, she is playing happily. She just has to let me know how much she is going to miss me. When I pick her up she is happy and talks about how much fun she had at school.
