Our daycare provider's father-in-law passed away. On Monday evening, she let us know that she would be open Tuesday but closed the rest of the week. John has no more vacation and I have way too much work to do to take the week off. So, John call's his mom and asks if she would be willing to come down to our house for that time and watch Sophia. She says she would be happy to.
Then, she calls back and lets us know that it would be very inconvenient for her because of the stairs. (With proper planning, there would be no need to leave either level of our house - upstairs at all, downstairs more than once down and once up). This in itself is a bit irritating but, as we are asking for a favor we will deal with it. However, that means that we dropped her off on Tuesday and will not see her again until Friday! I have been missing her terribly.
It is really funny - I have been gone on a couple of trips and those were not too bad. I have worked well past her bed time and not seen her for over 24 hours and that was fine. I think it is just that she is completely out of our control. I don't know. I just know I can't wait for Friday and I miss her.
