Gilly and I are getting geared up for Rylynn's next big adventure. On August 9th Ry will begin day school here in Lampasas. A local church has begun a new program in a great new facility and Ry will be one of their students. This was a terribly hard decision to make, but Gilly and I feel that it was ultimately the right decision. I have been lucky enough that over the past 15 months Rylynn has been able to stay in our home with the help of sitters and family. But she has become such an active little girl that I can not devote the time she needs each day while I work as well. I want to make sure that she is stimulated, challenged and learns to interact with others.
I know that along with lots of little ones comes lots of little germs and I pray that her heart and body can be strong against the winter-time yuckies. It will be great for her to build up her immunities, but we will have to be careful that she can handle it. Luckily, there will be only four little ones in her class... Yay!
It's so difficult for a woman to try to be the best mom, the best spouse and the best employee. I think ultimately this change will improve me in all three ways even though it's hard to think that having someone else nurture Rylynn all day will somehow actually make me a better mom, but I know she will get what she needs from the ladies there. Then at the end of the day, when I bring her home, she and I can spend our quality time playing with Daddy!! I sure will miss her though. (And probably worry about her as well) :(
Keep us in your thoughts and stay posted for a report on how the first week goes.
With love. . .
