Experiment Day 28: Helping Others (Kristine)

I helped my fiancee's sister today and I think I also helped her son Erick.  I was able to take Erick to his daycare for Kris because she was running late this morning and she didn't want to be late to work and I didn't have to be at work until 8:00 a.m. and I was therefore able to take him and still be on time to work. I was really excited to do this because I am so lucky to have Kris and Erick in my life and I love them dearly.  I was kind of nervous though because I had never dropped him off at his daycare in the mornings, I have only picked him up in the afternoons.  Once we got to the daycare, he was excited but he wanted me to stay and play with him at his school.  He is only three years old, but he is way smarter for his age and he is getting smarter and growing taller everyday.  I fear he will probably be taller than me here pretty soon.  He calls me his Aunt already and he is such a joy to have around.  


I feared the leaving him part because sometimes he gets very upset and cries or throws a fit.  I didn't want this to happen so I explained to him that I had to go to my "Big School" and that he would go to his school and that I would see him later after he plays all day.  He said "I miss you" and gave me a hug and then he went on his way to play and I was able to leave.  It was a success and I enjoyed taking him to his daycare and it helped Kris out and she was able to make it to work on time.  So far today has been a great and successful day and I hope that it continues to be.
