Jack’s been grumpy these few days. Yes, the teeth have been bothering him but I can tell that he’s been trying hard to keep his own spirits up. I’ve been rubbing teething gel indiscriminately and nursing him a lot more as he clung onto me. Today he wanted me and only me to carry him for a nap.
Later when he woke, grumpy and tired (this evening too), I tried to ease the cousin rivalry tension but hugging and kissing Kaitlyn after she cried about how everyone just cared about Jack now. She seemed happier and willing to share her toys and talk to us after. Thanks to Steve Biddulph’s latest book I browsed in Borders on Sunday night. I shall buy it during the next sale. 
A sweet thing Joyce just told me on IM. Her Dad and Mom who just met Jack were raving about him and his Dad in particular mentioned how he kept looking for me and commented that that’s what life should be about, that your baby son looks for you when you’re not in sight, and you put him as priority than work, if you have the means.
In my anxiety during this time of change, it makes me feel I made the right decision.
