4 Weeks

I'm beginning to see our lives changing.  You see in 4 weeks, I will start to work full-time and the kids will be with the caregiver longer than with me.  It is a little sad to know that they will soon bond with someone else outside the family.  I really do hope it works out, so I don't have to worry about child care in the middle of working full-time.

Today was the first day this week, we didn't have anywhere to go. It sure was nice. I end up cleaning and organizing in the morning, took kids to the local park, and we play until lunch.

At the end of this month I'm teaching Chinese camp and August is pretty much booked with medical, dental appointments and work obligations.  I'm missing my kids already, but I am doing what's right for me and my family.

I did the math and by December would have spend 4000 on child care, so basically child care is about 10,000 a year!
