Lily and Church

Well, it was yet another semi-stressful morning. Lily just seemed to be really overwhelmed. She made it through most of Sunday School, but we got paged because she was crying. Steve stayed with her until SS was over. I took over and tried to leave a few times, but her nursery room seemed to really be stressing her out even with me there.

The nursery she is in is for 18 mths - nearly 3. I took her into the nursery for birth to 18 mths and the change in her countenance was nearly instaneous! Less kids, less stimulation, less commotion. She played soooo much better. I told her that mommy was going to the other room to get her water and walked out. She didn't even flinch. I had a worker give her the water and just went into the service.

I did some more reading on attachment via the internet while she napped. I am convinced that her behavior is related to her personality and over-stimulation/stress and not attachment. This is good and bad. It's good, because it isn't attachment related. It's bad, because it is related to the nursery that she is supposed to be in. So yes, it was yet another stressful Sunday, but I think we are closer to finding a solution.
