re-enrolling

Oh my - I know it has been a while since I forgot the password to log in to the blog. :( But have no fear - we are all re-enrolled and ready to go. And not just for blogging either!! Grad class for me is in full swing and keeping me busy busy busy on top of the other daily responsiblities of life, work & family. Adding to those responsiblities was "re-enrolling" Mackenzie in daycare, after she decided to UNENROLL HERSELF - including telling all of her friends good-bye!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Suffice to say, that one was a shocker. However, everyone does get a good chuckle out of the story and have I been told I need to document it to make sure to have it for later - so here-in a perfect blog entry is born......

Awhile back, Mackenzie accompanied me to drop some things off at her former daycare provider (and my friend)'s house and was in 7th heaven. We stayed, chatted, etc but resumed normal daily activities, which included the super busy start to back to school for me. Due to that and the previously noted graduate classes - Grandma Jane has been getting LOTS of quality time with her blond girlfriend. This does include some drop-offs and pick-ups at daycare, depending on my schedule. One such morning, I was calling in to daycare to report a later drop-off from Grandma Jane when the conversation turned to the "well....I was hoping we could talk about this in person", where Mackenzie's current (& wonderful) day care provider inquired as to our current level of satisfaction, then making mention of Mackenzie's impending move from her car.

?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????????????????!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

That pretty much accurately sums up my thoughts upon hearing that and I inquired what she was refering to, while deeply fearing that we may be being asked to leave. :( After some discussions, we learned that dear little Mackenzie had taken it upon herself to inform everyone at daycare of her intent to depart their company and return to her previous provider. Sadly, she did not consult any of the powers that be in that decision - but did wisely bait & switch her current provider by saying "my mommy says she will talk to you about it real soon". Which played in perfectly with my overly busy schedule and could help explain my lack of appearances at daycare. So after a few minutes of discussions - this was all cleared up and Mackenzie was assured to maintain her current daycare placement while we all had a few laughs. However, her father & I SHUDDER to think that she attempted to drop out of daycare before she is even 4!
