OMG the awesomeness

I received a phone call today that Teo was next up on the wait list at a daycare we had toured in April. It is a perfectly fine and respectable day care, and he is going to make the switch in two weeks.

I love where Mateo is now -- it's an amazing day care and the teachers are fantastic. But, it is 20 minutes out of my way each morning, and another 20 or more added to my commute on the way home each night. I have to cross to the other side of the river and make my way through downtown to drop him off and pick him up. Also? It's expensive.

This other place? Well, it happens to be four blocks from my house. And it happens to be almost $300 less per month. And? And? It's where his cousin Howie goes.

This is going to make my life so much easier. That money is going to revolutionize things. And I'll save money on gas. And I'll be able to get to work earlier. Maybe I'll even be able to work from home some days. Oh good God, what a glorious day.

Congrats on the new daycare. Happy thanksgiving. Is "My Bad!" on the word list?Keep working on the new phrase "Holy Poop!" It's a good phrase.

yay!!!! now all you need is for Elenor to get in there too, and then it will be a huge fun festival! And yay for you too to maybe be able to work from home, and then maybe that means we can actually talk of the phone more frequently!!!!!!
(sorry about all the exlamation marks)

just wanted to put my little "YAY!!" in there too. :) our daycare is 20 minutes out of our way too, so i totally know the annoyance on that one. but it is cheap being in France and all. ;)
