Oh the drama!

Why is it that just when life starts to settle down, things pick up a rhythm and everything just seems to be moving perfectly in the right direction does my life ALWAYS get hit with a snag! Abby came home from preschool on Monday with a note from her teacher that the city was not going to renew her licence and she was going to have to shut down at the end of the month! Now I do feel terrible for her teacher, Abby just loves her and she does such a great job, but now what am I going to do!!! Not only was she the best price around but she was just a couple of houses down and so convenient!! So I had to start immediately on the scout for a new preschool, in the middle of the year with 12 other parents also on hot pursuit!!! Most of the schools that I heard back from were naturally full, the others were mostly too pricey for us, and the ones that would be reasonable only had openings in the afternoon which totally sucks. So after complaining to my dear friend Jerianne, she mentioned that she new that a mother was going to pull her student out of her daughters class at the end of the month, so I called the teacher and sure enough, she had one opening on her Tues. Thurs. morning class. This is only two days a week, but it is pretty close to my neighborhood and its in the morning, which is good, and it will only be $5 more a month. So, after this long story, we have a meet and greet with her new teacher this afternoon and she will start at the new school on Nov. 1st. I do feel really bad for Abby though, she is such a tender heart and change is so hard, just when she was starting to really love her teacher and make some great friends in her class everything has to change. At least she will have her dear friend Shea in her new class to ease the transition!! Oh the drama!!!

Blogger won't let me upload my latest layouts, so you will just have to wait for those!!!!

Hope everyone has a great day, and wish us all luck at the teacher meeting this afternoon!!!

Oh how frustrating! I'm so sorry to hear about Mrs. Davis closing her preschool. But, I'm very glad that you were able to find another preschool for Abby. I hope the meet and greet goes well today, and I hope Abby does all right with the transition to the new school. Thank goodness for Shea!

I am so sorry that something so traumatic happened to Abby. I hope that having Shea in her class will help. I'm thrilled and so is Shea (I told her this afternoon). Hopefully life will even out and give you time to breathe now.

Oh my! Just have Abby come to my house and I'll teach her everything she needs to know... I need practice anyway, lots and lots of practice!

Oh I do know the drama of transitions for these little ones! Sorry to hear about the loss of convenience, but she will like being with Shea. And go Abby with the bike! She looks so happy. Your layout is great too. Can't wait to see more!

I am sure that Abby did well at her teacher meeting. Sorry about the inconvenience of having to drive and also finding a new place. Give the girls a hug for me.
