School

Well, after I dropped Kaylee off at school, I took the Citabria up for a bit. It always does a nice job of relaxing a person. At least this person. :) And I needed it, because after I got Kaylee, we went to McDonald's Playland for hours. Got back from that and had 40 minutes to get ready for gymnastics. Was at gymnastics for an hour, ran home, changed clothes, and immediately drove to School #2 to check them out for their Open House for parents. Liked the room, liked the teacher, liked almost everything about the school. I've already got the paperwork filled out, and on Monday I'll take it in, and Kaylee will officially be enrolled at Redeemer Lutheran School. The other school would have been closer to my religious beliefs, and a much closer drive to get to each morning, but this school has...I can't explain it. It's just the better choice even if their doctrine is a little different than ours. I feel good about the choice, and I just wasn't feeling that same way about Choice #1, even though it seemed perfectly fine, is closer in location, is where her Awanas group meets, and is closer to our religous beliefs. I go with my instincts even if I can't explain them. I do feel good about the choice though. That was reinforced this afternoon when Kaylee's Kindergarten teacher pulled me aside and said she heard we were looking at that school. I said yes, and she responded that her daughter had gone there, and they all loved it, and she wishes she could still attend. I like this teacher, so if SHE likes the school, and *I* like the school, and Kaylee likes it even though it is 'new' and not familiar like the other one, then...I guess that's a "sale". It's also a little cheaper, which doesn't hurt either, though it's more than double what we are currently paying for Kindergarten. *sigh*

Then tonight I just tried to get some work done on the computer, do laundry so Steve could pack for his trip, etc. It was a day where we weren't home more than an hour at a time from the time I left the house at 8:30 am until the time we were done with the school Open House at 7 pm. Just one of those days! Good, but busy...
