Dear Bently,

You are at a very confusing age. I just do not understand you thought process. Here is my biggest frustration right now. You are terrified of everything. Like everything. But the weirdest is you have started to become so scared of preschool. Preschool is held at Grandma's house and is taught by both your grandmas! It just doesn't make since how you could be afraid. We have spent hours in that house, in the preschool room even! I've tried talking to you about it but you never give me a reason why you are scared. The past 3 or 4 times it has been so hard to drop you off! You cry and scream, "I want my mommy!" And it just breaks my heart. Even though I know you are safe and you're going to be taken care of! If it were up to me I would've let you stay home. But your Dad said no. I know it was the right choice but he's not the one that has to drop you off! :( I love you son! I hate hearing your cry. The weird thing is every time I pick you up you are so happy and go on and on about what you learned in preschool! Today I almost took you with me, but I was glad I didn't. When I came back to pick you up the first thing you said was, "I had fun in preschool!" I knew you would! I love you and I hate having to watch you go through hard things but those are the things that help us grow. I look forward to the day where you are no longer scared of preschool!

Love,
Mom
