The many faces of Ethan

It was Ethan's first full day in his new nursery today. He went in happily enough until we reached the door of his room. It was very noisy and he suddenly turned into a limpet, clinging onto my legs. I ended up having to prise him off and leave with him crying on the nursery floor, with a nursery nurse trying to comfort him. Not how I wanted to walk away and I had such a lump in my throat.

However, one of my friends wee boys goes to the same nursery in the afternoon and I texted her to ask if she had seen Ethan when she dropped her son off. The reply was that he had been playing really happily and apparently he then ended up playing with her son all afternoon. Thank goodness things improved after I left!

He was practicing some of his facial expressions at bedtime tonight - I think this batch includes happy, sad, cheeky and grumpy - can you tell which is which?!
