no cap yet

working on a Christmas/Year End post, but in the meantime I just had to say how happy I am after talking to the director of the infant room at the kids' daycare. She's more than willing and happy to accommodate Declan's different needs - he'll have a cot instead of a crib and they will gently help him adjust to drinking milk from a cup instead of using bottles in Mama's absence. He has no milk allergies, so I think it will be OK for him to go to cow or soy milk instead of formula. I'll be spending the first week or so there with him. Not sure exactly yet - maybe spend the whole day with him for the first week, half days the second, and then he'll be on his own with Mika in the next room for support, if he needs it.
