Over protective
I’m not sure how I’m ever going to feel comfortable having Colin out of our supervision. We experimented with leaving him in the care of the folks at the Y while we worked out. In our defense, it’s a safe and secure place where we really shouldn’t worry about him. All the same, we only left him for about 10 minutes as our workouts overlapped.
It was not easy. I goofed by not making it clear to Colin that I was leaving him with these strangers (good job daddy), and apparently while he was down there some other kid opened the gate into the play area right on our little baby boy. Augh.
Conceptually I understand that there is going to come a time in his life when Jess or I are not monitoring him and making sure he’s okay, but letting that happen is obviously going to be a lot harder than I ever imagined. Definitely not going to happen again until he’s walking and thus a bit more independent. Maybe when he’s about fifteen or so.
