A-D-D-Y

Yesterday I began the hunt for a pre-school for our youngest daughter! Registration for pre-school begins on the 18th of this month, so it was not too soon. Looking for a pre-school can be as arduous a search as looking into colleges. I remember the mountain of paperwork to fill out when Apryl and Alexys started pre-school. I was able to speak to one of the potential teachers over the phone, and she was extremely helpful. She reminded me of all the papers I need in order to send my baby girl off to school! Which by the way, I had forgotten to get her birth certificate! That is now being processed as we speak. Getting her birth certificate was not very easy either. In order to obtain a copy, they have to verify I am who a say I am...her Mother! I am okay with the amount of security in order to get my hands on this document, I just wished I had been prepared to remember every old address and phone number I have ever had!! After I am done answering all of the on-line questions, they tell me I still need to be identified further. Long story short, I ended up calling and actually talking to a real person! She was very helpful, and assured me I am who I say I am, and is sending me Addys' birth certificate. Now, I also need to get a copy of her shot record. As well as the doctors office knows me, that should be a piece of cake! The only obstacle left is convincing Addysen that school does not start for her for a few months still. After she and I were done looking at schools on the computer, she went and found her backpack and told me she was ready to go! Each morning her older sisters are getting ready for school she is so disappointed when she can't go with them! I only wish that enthusiasm for school lasted until they graduated, Apryl thinks school is boring! If Apryl is not working on some nuclear science project or reading Shakespeare school is boring.
