"Momma's Boy was having a meltdown without me today"

Recently I have joined a group called mops in Richmond Hill. Today was supposed to be my first meeting since I missed the last one. I got there and took Roman to his room that he was supposed to be in while I was in class. He was fine when i dropped him off and I quietly left without him seeing me. Maybe 5 Min's later the lady from the room came and got me and said roman wouldn't stop crying. She said he started crying after my friend Brandie dropped off her little girl cambria. Roman and Cambria are both friends so I think he was confused because normally we are all together when they have play dates. I stayed for a few minutes while he calmed down and sneaked out again. Again, 5 Min's later she came back to get me and said he wouldn't stop crying by the door and wanting momma. This happened about 4 times. So after the 4th attempt I gave up and got him and left. I felt bad for him and cried a little myself. I hate seeing him upset. I kinda feel like i abandoned him. But i know I didn't. He needs to get used to this being in class for when he starts school in a few years. My mother-in-law watches him when i work and he crys when i drop him off still after 2 years of her watching him. But only for a few Min's she says. I mean sometimes I wish I could send him to a daycare to get used to being around other people besides me and ruslan all the time. I just never want to put my kids in a daycare environment. So I'm in bind and don't know if I should try to go back and see how he does.. The moms where all very nice and said alot of kids do this. I just don't want to go there and keep missing the classes because I'm having to calm roman down every 5 Min's. : (
