[quote=Anonymous]My three year old is doing pretty well, but she misses things. The other day she announced "I want to go out for dinner!" and was disappointed when we couldn't. She misses her friends, she misses her dance class, she asks when she can show her teachers a dress she really likes, that kind of thing. Her birthday is in a couple months and she's probably going to be disappointed by whatever we can put together. It's usually just pizza with a couple friends and grandparents at the pool, but I can't imagine that happening even in July.

I'm also noticing a lot of this seeping into her imaginative play. Lots of stuffed animals that are sick or that are being told that daycare is closed or mommy has to work, which is a little sad.

She's doing okay overall and I'm really proud of how she's handling it, but it's hard to imagine that there aren't going to be some effects from being basically only with her parents for a couple months. I doubt anything major, but she'll be a different kid than if this hadn't happened.[/quote]
