Caregivers I trust beyond measure
This #thankyouthursday, I am grateful for caregivers I trust beyond measure.
This morning was a tough one with my little sidekick, and as a result he was not thrilled to be dropped off at school.
Usually after we get inside and say hello to his teachers and classmates, he is happy to give me a hug, a high five, a wave, or a push out the door. (Lately it’s been all of the above.) But today, he did not want to say goodbye.
However, I very much needed to say goodbye. And because I trust his caregivers beyond measure, I was able to confidently transfer him to a different set of arms and walk away, even though he had begun to cry.
And then a little while later one of his caregivers sent me a text, letting me know that he’d had a good morning after moving through the tears. I’d assumed that would happen, but it was so kind of her to confirm, and it further strengthened my ability to trust that my kid is being cared for even when I’m not the one providing the care.
It means a lot to me that I can walk away and let others help. I am so grateful.
Love > fear,
