Another Meltdown

This morning was another bad morning for Matthew. The only trigger I can think of is the late start due to the weather. We fought the entire time trying to get him dressed and he cried all the way to the daycare, screaming and flailing his body. He screamed, "Mommy, home!" and then when we got to the daycare, he screamed, "Mommy, No, Door!" He wanted me to close the car door and not get him out. He kicked at me the whole time I tried to release the straps on his car seat. Then finally once he was unbuckeled, he grabbed ahold of the car seat and would not let go. I had to pull him out the car with him screaming and crying. I carried him in and all the ladies, daddy and I tried to soothe him but with no luck. Finally, they pried him from my arms so that I could leave and go to work. I heard him screaming and crying as I left the building and even as I got into my car. Then my tears flowed. I just wished that I could take it all away for him.
