the dew baby

Remember my Plan C post from a few weeks ago? Well, as of yesterday, the need for Plan C has been scrapped. Plan B came through!

I was sitting at my desk working yesterday afternoon when I received a call from one of the charter academies, informing me that they have a spot for Sean if I still want it.

YESSSSSSSS!!!!

He is guaranteed a spot in Kindergarten there, and I can now exhale and resume breathing at a normal rate. I had no idea it was possible to physically feel a metaphorical weight lift until yesterday. But guess what! It is! HA!

And as an added bonus, if we fail to sell our house and decide to stay here, Evan is guaranteed a spot in that school as well -- sibling priority, baby!

This turn of events actually buys us six more years to figure out what's what.

At this point, we're going to keep our house on the market and continue to put forth an effort to sell. I still would love to have a bigger place with a dining room that accommodates 4+ people (our current eat-in kitchen only fits a table and three chairs, so Dan has to stand when he eats with us which, incidentally, isn't that often anyway). And a few more square feet for Dan's Star Wars stuff wouldn't be a horrible thing either.

Now.... if only the housing market would just figure out what's what....
