Getting Odin up was the hardest thing I've ever had to do. We brought him in our bed so he could wake up gradually and he fell back asleep with Alyssa while I got up to get his stuff ready. When we tried to get him up together, he cried about how he wanted to stay in Mommy's bed and sleep. He was in the car on the way to school recognizing the neighborhood before he stopped crying. Getting his clothes on took both of us working together against his efforts, and I tell you I've had more success in jujitsu matches against guys two feet taller than me.
When we got him there, it took him a minute to warm up, but Suzanne (the woman in charge of his group, the "Panda" class) was really helpful and we taught him her name and that he can ask her for food or to go to the bathroom. She's been working that class for 14 years and she's really nice and helped him out a lot. Alyssa and I have been walking around the apartment all day so far talking about how weird it is to not have him here and wondering what he's up to and how he's doing. We even check the print-out of his schedule so we know what he's doing right at this moment. We really love the free time but we also miss him a lot!
