Misty - Your puppy is so cute!!!
I loved the mother's ring - was that your jeriber?
Wendy - Was it Norah who was getting sick? Is everyone well now?
I don't even watch Grey's, but you guys almost have me curious!
Thanks for praying for DH's dad. He is still in the hospital, but doing well.
I already have you on the list for January with the baby, right? And ASAP with Joshua. Will you need care during the summer though? A mom called the other day wanting to know where she was on our 2 year old list - I hate telling people, "Sorry, you are like number 22 and maybe you should try when your child turns 3." There is such a need in Hattiesburg for quality centers. Next year we are going to go for our NAEYC accreditation. We pretty much do the things they require anyway.
You have a trip in 16 days! Wow I didn't realize it was so soon. Is that spring break? How long are you staying? Where are you staying? And most importantly where are you eating?
Where has Melissa (Katinhat) been?
WOOOHOOOTY
I agree with everything Christine said. As a director, I see all perspectives. I know that most teachers are not there for the money (if they are, they do not last long!) Working in a room with 10 toddlers all day is no cake walk. There are many days that 5 teachers call in sick and then what do you do? We shuffle and move people and do all we can to keep ratios down. This year we did hire 2 full time subs that float everyday and fill in where we need them - that has really helped. It is a constant balancing act: keep ratios down, keep tuition reasonable, pay teachers well, keep everyone happy. Until I took over as a director, I had no idea how hard running a daycare is. You have got to love kids and see it as a ministry.
I wonder if Wendy has posted her "Goodbye" video yet!?

May I please get a woo hooty! I ran into someone today whom I haven't seen in a while. SHe said wow you lost alot of weight. You look five years younger. It was great because I was getting very discouraged about the whole plateau thing going on. So if after 15 lbs I look 5 years younger, I figure I'll look like I'm 8 years old by the time I'm done!

but I like all the teachers in the center.That being said my, kids were never in daycare as an infant.No matter what the ratio I liked having my babies at home so I did child care in my home when they were small.BUT I had that option and not everyone does.
You will not believe the incredibly STUPID thing I did!!!!! I have been editing our Disneyphotopass pictures online for the last week - you know adding borders and stuff. I was going to order the CD. I knew they expired last night and had planned to order when I got home from church. I forgot and remembered tonight. They are GONE! 
Ball season has started and I have to get better prepared.I am also having a birthday party for Rachel Saturday and have done NOTHING!!Anyone feel like making a pink heart shaped winnie the pooh Minnie Mouse cake??
. I would like to be able to add to it so she could add my kiddos on it someday but thats not a deal breaker. I think she would 
it!
). I went over to the free weight section and found a dumbell they weighed the closest to the amount I have lost. Picking up that thing was a real boost in the perspective department! Give it a try!
Loved your video. I had a little trouble with the audio, but that could be my 'puter. 
You looked lovely and quite skinny. 
Hope you have a great time and I hope it seems like a two hour trip. 
I am so sorry about your pictures. I know that is heartbreaking for you. I bet you had some good ones too. Well, that is one more reason to have to go back! 
I hate it when I "forget" things. It seems like it happens more and more these days. The ole' memory just ain't what it used to be. 
-6.2 lbs!!!
Have a blast, woman!
