After a long day (of me walking around in a fog) and a wonderful nights rest I am once again human!!!
4 am was worth every minute!!! Babycakes is registered for Georgia pre-k!! I know I freaked some of you out with the thought that you must be up and ready and crack thirty for preschool ... and you do if you want the coveted 28 spots at the cute little school she will be attending. The Georgia lottery pays for pre-k in certain schools and daycare facilities. Each school has a limited number of spots and they are first come, first serve. We could have left her in her fabulous Christian preschool for another year ... but I wanted her to have a stronger preparation for kindergarten. She will go to school next year all five days from 830-3 and attend a watered down version of kindergarten for free!!! Yes ... if you want a free slot you get up at crack thirty with the roosters!
I am thrilled! This is the perfect option for my baby. She misses the cut off this year by mere days and she is quick and bright and needs the extra curriculum. And can I say it again ... FREE? I just got a $400 raise per month next year.
All in all ... it was worth every minute of the giggling, gossiping, chewing the fat, coffee sipping moment that I shared with dear friends.
She is set for a great year! (and some am I!!)

ReplyDeleteMy neighbors were doing the SAME thing. Up at awake o'clock to get their adorable little boy into school.
Hmm, on a side note...super pumped about Saturday!
That's great! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteYay! Congrats to Babycakes AND the pink clutch :-) I am a big supporter of pre-K programs!!
ReplyDeleteWow! That is amazing. I've never heard of any place paying for preschool. I would totally justify the crazy early wake up call! Good for you!
ReplyDeleteoh yes you are, that is great. SOOO jealous. $400/month is some nice purses and shoes ya know.
ReplyDeleteHooray! So happy...for you, babycakes and your pink clutch soon to be holding more money.
ReplyDeleteCongrats! That goes to show ya, a little lip gloss at crack thirty goes a long way! :)
ReplyDeleteGood news, indeed! When she accepts that diploma from Princeton, she'll have you to thank.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to your creative usage of the $400! :)
Awesome! I couldn't figure out what in the aorld you were talking about in that last post! Lol, I'm a blond. I'm so glad that all worked out for you guys!
ReplyDeleteWOW! That is awesome! We just finished paying daycare only to do it all over again once we bring our little one home! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteAn extra $400/month? That's fantastic and definitely worth one early morning!!
ReplyDeleteThat's excellent! So glad your little girl got a spot.
ReplyDeleteCongrats!! The first time I took a friends advice and got in line super early for preschool I was amazed at all the people who were doing it -- just like waiting in those lines for concert tickets when we were in college.
