Zoe arrives 5:20am

This time all went to plan! We arrived home at 6:30am .... to find Kaylia waiting at the door! She was VERY happy to see Zoe again ..... her world is all in order again. Tonight when Naomi left to go to the hospital, it was very clear that she was not happy about it. I worry about the effect of me going away on Wednesday (.... if it happens!)

Kaylia's anxiety behaviours are a worry. Hopefully they are largely due to the hospital situation (which btw still continues ...) so we can figuratively hold our breath till the situation normalises. At present the 'nagging' behaviours are very wearing. The problem is that the things she nags for are activities (eg shopping) which will happen eventually ..... so at some point the bad behaviour will be rewarded in her mind. We can't avoid it.

This evening there is much sharing of travel stories. It's good to have people around again.

Later: Phew ... bed-time routine was bad tonight! I think we can safely say that the anxiety behaviours are in full strength!
