preschools and other things
We have been sooo busy the past few days.
Just straightening up the place, looking into preschools etc.
Yesterday we went to Chilis for lunch... then to Home Depot to pick up some weed killer. damn weeds. haha. Then after that we headed over to the kindercare and I was SOOO not happy with it. Right when we walked in, one of the TA's was seriously yelling at a little girl, and I looked over to the directors assistant, and I said, "I hope to God that is not normal behavior because if so, my son will not be coming here" And she said "oh no no, its not..i'll talk to her about that" But just seeing that happen really disturbed me, and totally turned me off of the place. They also do not require the teachers and assistants to have early childhood education units from a college or anything. Just the Kindercare basic 12 units. And that really disturbed me. So any idiot could walk in there, take their courses and be trying to teach my son. No thank you. I mentioned how the Kindercare in CA requires such things, and she just said since we are in AZ now the state law is different. Screw that. No AZ Kindercare for me.
After that we went to another pre-school which is seriously 2 minutes from the house and that place seemed to be really good. They require more childhood studies units from a college and 2 of the teachers that we met are earning their degrees at U of A. So thats cool with me. I felt a lot better about the 2nd school.
But we found more schools and are going to look at them today. And also go grocery shopping.
Anyways - I think tonite we may be going bowling. But we need to contact the people who we are wanting to go with. And then tomorrow night we are going to gangsta_gangsta bands show...So that will be cool.
Tobin let me sleep in this morning, when I got up, he just walked in the door with bagels and starbucks. What a nice fiance. <3
Overall, I really like it here. And Im looking forward to the move.
Im thinking about having a going away party before I move out here... what do you all think???
