Mya has been dealing with separation anxiety for about a year now...maybe even longer than a year. She screams hysterically when we drop her off at Sunday School EVERY Sunday. Mind you, we have been going to the same church for all of her life. She is not good with other situations that involve us leaving. It was not until just recently that she stopped crying on Wednesday nights when we drop her off with the babysitters while we go to Bible Study, which again we have done her WHOLE life!
So, this momma was more than apprehensive about the upcoming transition to preschool. It is only 2 days a week for a couple of hours but still it requires me leaving her. I started praying and I asked my friends to start praying for her and LET. ME. TELL. YOU....GOD ANSWERED!
This morning was Mya's first day at preschool and she did great! She got a little sad at first and stood behind me but then her teacher started talking to her and asked her to come in and pick out some play dough. She followed her teacher and her cousin into the classroom and slowly walked to her seat and began to play. All without any meltdowns. what. so. ever! PRAISE THE LORD! She had a good time and is looking forward to going back later this week!

How awesome to serve a God that hears our cries and answers our prayers!

Amen. I've got Phillipppians 4:6 posted on my computer as a reminder of the same thing: "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God".
