Jun. 12th, 2003 09:32 amOn Tuesday, along with my announcement, we had another mild change in reality.
Joan, the lady that's taken care of Jet every morning since he was seven-months-old, wants to do more work as a medical transcriber, so a friend of hers, Jodie, is taking all the kids in the morning. Alex's school is out for the summer, so he's going with Jet and Haley to Jodie's. I dropped them off there for the first time on Tuesday and they're going there again today.
It's odd, a I know that this probably means that Jet'll never go, fulltime back to Joan's. He's going to start pre-school this coming fall, at a school that Haley *isn't* going to be in, which will be very odd for him, too, but that's going to be two days a week as well.
So habits change. Jet's having a great time because he already knows Jodie's son, Dante, and Haley and Alex are there with him, too. But it's another sign, for me at least that things are changing.

thanks again!!
