Preschool!

Sunday August 24th 2008

Wow, its been so crazy! Products to sew, designs to test out, pictures to take, cards to order, opinions to get and getting the word out, it has been a whirlwind of activity but it's been so fun! We took Aiden and Benicio to an amazing park here in Portland in the park blocks in Northwest to take some really cute pictures. They just loved tying the blankets around their necks and running as fast as they could pretending they were superman. Little Jonas was a happy camper in his dib (which came in incredibly handy by the way!) but he will be up and running around with the two hyper tots in no time. My husband Noe and I have now launched into a new realm in our world...drumroll please...enrolling for PRESCHOOL. Little did we know, that you needed to put your child on a waiting list when they were merely 6 months to get them in when they are nearly four years old. I know, I know, I'm exagerating about the 6 months, but I might as well have put him on some lists because the demand here in Portland for a really good co-op preschool is high. Co-ops are so great (from what I've heard from girlfriends and read and talked with teachers) they offer children a social, interactive and creative outlet while allowing us SAHMs to volunteer our time and energy in the classroom to alleviate the much dreaded tuition costs each month. The average cost of a co-op here is only $100! Wow, no wonder co-ops are so popular. We've put him on three waiting lists for schools around our area in North Portand and we will see how it goes. I will keep you posted on our progress. Cross your fingers!
