For this day I stayed late at work to help out even though I was really excited to get home (Friday night, right?) Sabela took a really late nap so she was not tired at 6 when she normally goes down. Plus her mom was coming home at 6 anyway so it didn't make sense to put her down! Well, instead of her mom coming home, her dad did. We were playing on the floor and he walked in and said hi to her and walked toward her to pick her up and she FREAKED out! She started crawling as fast as she could toward me. I back away and he picked her up and she is screaming as loudly as possibly and trying to get out of his arms while reaching for me! (I know, it was a sad day for her dad). He gave her to me and she stopped crying but held onto me with a death hold that would make a Parana jealous! I volunteered to say a bit longer and put her to bed since she obviously was not going to let her dad hold her. She just played in bed until her mom got home but at least she was happy!

That is sooo sad!!! How wonder how much it upset him. He should be as comfortable with him as he is with the mom--they both work a ton. You work long hours I bet you were so ready to go home!! You had a busy week and it continues with watching Michelle's kids right?
ReplyDeleteYou surely handled that well. The good news is that she will outgrow that, but I'm sure it was hurtful. It would have been even harder I bet if it had happened to her mom.
ReplyDeleteThe next morning he went to get her out of her crib and she was totally fine! Yea, I watched michelle's kids all weekend, we were taking them to a movie that night though so I needed to get home and eat! I ended up just eating in the car!
