Rough week

After starting out last weekend with the vaccine reaction and then moving into the ear infections I think we've turned the corner. Charli went to school again on Thursday. She came home both nights exceptionally clingy. I believe we're going through separation anxiety now. I thought today may be better. I don't generally work on Fridays and thougt we'd pick up my mom, go to coffee with her gym friends and then run some errands. Again, Charli was clingy. She wanted "up" and only with me. Fortunately, after about 40 minutes, she was warming up and more playful. Then she fell asleep on our way to the store. She ended up with only a 20 minute nap. After cruising through Shopko, Charli fought falling back to sleep. As per usual, she fell asleep 5 minutes from mom's house. We decided to drive back to my house and mom would stay in the car while I attempted to replace my DVR receiver. Yep, she only slept about 10 minutes after we got home. My dad was in Hudson for an appointment and he came over, Thank God!!! Charli would NOT go to anyone else. What could have been a half hour long project ended up taking about an hour and a half. About forty minuets later Charli started to get playful. After dinner my neighbor Brian stopped by. Charli adores him. She was really playful and happy. I am finally thinking she may have turned the corner. Next week she goes to school 3 days and we start swimming lessons again. I'm hoping it gets easier. -- it has to, right???
