Michal goes to daycare two days a week, and we found a wonderful brand new, in-home daycare that has been awesome. Not only are they totally willing to do the cloth diaper thing, but they just adore M. The woman has two children - a 2 year old who calls M her baby, and a 5 year old who, new to kindergarten, is very concerned about Michal's education and wants to give her circle time every day to enrich her learning. He has a whole list of subjects that he considers really quite important for a growing girl.
This week is the first week that Michal is not the only baby there. From now on, it is her and a 3 month old little girl. Now, Michal is quite the calm baby (that might be an understatement), and the woman who watches her has told me on more than one occasional that M is just not normal - her children were apparently quite feisty and difficult and Michal is just a whole other breed of baby. At one point today, the other little girl starts to cry and then scream, so the woman who watches them decides to put her down next to Michal, who was having a grand time on the activity mat. After listening to the cries for a little bit, Michal rolls to her side facing the baby, and apparently made some grunting sound, as if to tell Amelia, "Just get over it already!"
Here's hoping she doesn't learn any "bad lessons" at day care!
