Preschools

A few years ago I remember my one and only "friend with kids" talking about interviewing preschools for her son. I thought she was a getting a bit psycho-mom on me, but now I totally understand!

For the past week I've been intently researching, frantically placing phone calls, taking tours and..... have finally deciding on a preschool for Sophia for next year. Bellamy Manor School. Actually now that I give it a second thought it might be Broad Bay Manor School. As I'm sitting here writing this post I'm now debating which location I should send her to since there are four of them. We live centrally to three of them so I basically need to decide where Aubrey and I want to spend our time and run our errands next year. Will and I really like the philosophy and the individualized curriculum of the Manor Schools.

Aubrey will be home with me again, but Sophia will turn three in May and will start 3 days a week in the fall. She will not eat lunch at this school so her day will be 1/2 hour shorter than it is this year. (Boo hoo! Poor me!)

They offer extra curricular activities like ballet, Tumblebus (literally a hollowed out bus turned tumble gym), Spanish and karate.

Can't wait until tomorrow morning so I can drop off the application and check. I think I will breathe a bit easier when I know she has a spot at this school. Fingers crossed.
