Today (8:30-4:30) I am keeping a 1-year-old who is always held . . . on the hip . . . in a sling. He is passed from sitter to sitter every day, as his parents have the same work schedule, and I guess they don't want to put him in daycare. He is never allowed to cry, which is one of the most absolute worst things you can do for a baby!!!!! So, naturally, I let him cry this morning. He cried and screamed and whined every second he wasn't in my arms facing me and on my hip. No, I couldn't just hold him. He had to be on the hip, or else he would climb up my chest until he worked himself into that position. Poor Nathan and James just didn't know what to think of him. I had to nurse Steven with one arm around this little boy.
But there is a little hope! we ate lunch at 1:00, and he hasn't whined since. Of course, I have had him in my lap. But I have been able to get some things done on the computer, and I just got a smile out of him for the first time today.
I am so glad that I am able to raise my boys and not give them to someone else to do the job.
