So why did the anxiety and depression last into day 2? I had no idea why? We had no idea why? It was a normal wake up call... got dressed but wouldn't come out of her room... I thought that was strange so I gave her her breakfast in her room... no big deal. Went back in to check on her breakfast was all done but still didn't want to come out? Went back to check on her and there she was in tears at the end of her bed curled up in a ball... Momma I can't do this today... Oh I know baby its ok, lets get me to the bus and we'll take it from there. Off we went. Standing there with her head buried in my stomach... oh baby I love you its ok I understand. Then I get on the bus and she jumps up into Daddy's arms and puts her head into his shoulder.... I can tell she's crying. Oh baby I wish I could make this go away... why is it into day 2... it only ever last one day!
A phone call at 8 telling me she's on the steps crying and he had to leave her for Nanny to try to calm down... its ok baby we understand.
All day I worried. All day I wondered what to do. All day I wanted to call home but knew if I did I would just make her more upset. What was it..........
Then at 430 it hit me like a ton of bricks.... Tuesday night I talked to her about her birthday. We would go to a restaurant and then either go bowling or play mini golf... her choice. OMG what was I thinking... I left her to pick. That's why she woke up Wednesday morning asking me what she should pick and I told her not to worry about it right now. That's why she went to bed Wednesday night asking the same thing. That's why she woke up Thursday morning asking me what she should pick... OMG its been playing on her mind... OMG I forgot how hard it is for her to celebrate her birthday... the gifts... the excitement... the stress for her!
Off I go home... baby girl I called the bowling alley we can't go cause the lanes are all filled up. Oh ok Momma we will play golf.... laugh, smile, jumping around.... did it break! Did making one simple choice for her instead of allowing her to make it make the difference?
In less then one hour when she gets up well know won't we......
