Dear Emilia,
This week was your first week at daycare. I was very sad to leave you after we had spent four months together at home. I cried when I dropped you off, but I felt better knowing that you were going to love it at Theresa’s house. She has all sorts of wonderful toys and books and kids’ music, a stroller for walks, and a huge yard for playing. Plus, your new friends William and Hudson are there. Since they are 8 and 5 months older than you, they are lots of fun to watch and learn things from. The report from your first day was: “Emilia had a great first day 🙂 She seemed to enjoy observing the busyness of the boys playing, listening to a variety of kids CDs, grabbing at and chewing on toys, etc. She is such a delight!” By the end of the week you had been on lots of walks, played in the exersaucer, and learned to knock over blocks with the boys. The best part of my day is getting to pick you up and seeing how happy you are and all the new things you are doing. Here are some pictures of your first week. 
We are so happy that we found Theresa to help us take care of you while we are at work. You seem to love it there and are going to learn so much! You’ll be walking and talking before we know it.
Love you, Mom
