Change is good, right?
We must embrace it. Trust & have faith.
Again, we find ourselves there.
The end of last week, someone from OPS called Jeff. He wanted him to come down & check out one of the alternative schools. Turns out.... they got his name from an old professor & had a job for him. He interviewed twice this week & officially accepted a full-time job today. He starts ASAP, meaning as soon as we successfully line up of child care for our kids. They were very understanding & gracious of our timeline.
Today, at the recommendation of 2 co-workers, we dropped in & checked out a daycare center. As it turns out, being almost 3, our kids can actually be in the Pre-school room there. As opposed to most locations where you must be 3 by July 31. It was an awesome place. Great security. Very nice teachers we met in every room we dropped in on. And a Pre-school curriculum built from all 3 of the surrounding school districts to get our kids prepped for K. The kids were in awe of all the new things & though I know there will be tears when they do go it alone on day 1, they talk about it excitedly. In talking to one of the Pre-school teachers, the curriculum will push their minds a little bit, but I think they are
right there... and ready to jump in & learn. We were told some 3 year olds are not quite ready for the Pre-school room & if we decide its something they are not quite ready for, they can drop back to the 2+ room. But I think they are ready. And getting back to some structure will be good for them!
So (assuming everything goes as planned) in just 10 short days, a great change will be upon us. I pray our kids remain resilient as ever & take on this new journey head on!
We have come to look at things in life with a "meant to be" mentality. We were MEANT to have triplets, hence our infertility struggle. During our home buying process, I challenged God to give me a sign we were supposed to be doing this. I think with the way it all went down, its pretty clear.
And this job. Jeff admits, 3 months ago, its not one he would have applied for. And while he has enjoyed subbing & its been keeping him pretty busy the last few weeks, it would be silly to turn down a FT job opportunity. So apparently he was "meant to" go this sub route temporarily so that he was prepared to accept this job.
We are excited to embark on this newest journey! Pray that our kids handle the transition gracefully!
Never a dull moment.... Oh Hayden....
Who actually very quietly spoke up & told one of the teachers at the center his name was "Hayden Thomas Maas"
