Today was the big day. Ellie was so excited that I think it took her about 3 hours to fall asleep last night. (Not kidding. When I took her to the bathroom at 10:30 she had not yet gone to sleep. She said to me, "Mommy, I'm so excited to see Owen tomorrow.")
We arrived at Ms. Sarah's ontime, by miracle of Ellie actually eating fast. When Owen got there I tried to encourage Ellie to go meet him, but she couldn't do it. Instead, she ran and hid under the table. She spent about 5 minutes there until Ms. Sarah chased her out. Owen was also feeling a little overwhelmed too. Ms. Sarah had ended up with a full house today by unlucky chance really.
Max and I left after a while. Sarah was taking all the kids outside to run around and play tag. She told me that they had a good time and that Ellie did eventually speak to Owen. When Max and I returned to pick Ellie up, Owen and his dad were leaving. Ellie told me she had a great time playing with Owen and "I got to play with him the whole time Mommy!" So, I would call the day a great success. But now come the questions of "When will I see him again Mommy?"
