Only slightly guilty

Hubby had an early dentist appointment this morning, so I had to drop Babygirl off at daycare. Hubby said that Babygirl hasn't cried the last few weeks, so I was hoping this would be an easy drop off. I sat with her while she ate her breakfast (Cheerios and bananas), and she seemed happy - waving and babbling to the boy sitting next to her. When I told her, "Mommy has to go bye bye now." she pushed her chair back, started crying, and tried to climb on me. I picked her up and walked her over to her teacher, Ms. Mary. Ms. Mary knew the drill, so she said, "It's time for Mommy to go now." Babygirl cried and said, "No!" but she stopped as soon Ms. Mary took her into her arms. I waved goodbye and walked out the door feeling only slightly guilty.
