Moving, School

Nico was sick with a head cold over the weekend. We skipped church. But he did get to play with Meatball the cat. He brought his airplane outside to show him. The cat followed him around while Nico poked among the rocks.

Tuesday night we went to Jeff & Allicia's to drop off a bunch of stuff for storage. We took it down into their cellar. They had room for all of it! I am so glad we won't need to rent a storage unit. This afternoon I took some stuff up into the suite, kitchen stuff, and blankets. We move this Saturday, in TWO DAYS!

Today while Nico was in school I called the bus to tell them our new address. They told me to call his teacher to have her submit the new address, so I called his teacher. She called me back and I gave her the new address and she asked me "now did you make sure that you are still in the boundaries for Madison school?" Umm… no :( I told her that I had assumed that since we were just moving a mile away that it would be the same school. Uh oh, I was wrong. She looked it up and it looks like after moving we will lie in the district for a different preschool - at White Pine Elementary. My heart broke. I asked her if there was anything we could do to keep Nico at Madison and she said not likely. She called later to confirm that there was nothing they could do, no exception could be made.

So it looks like Nico will be going to a different school. Next Tuesday will be his last day at Madison. We told Nico when he got home today and it didn't seem to phase him. I will keep repeating it over the next few days so that it's sure to sink in. It may be more of an adjustment for Guy and I than Nico!

And wouldn't you know it, I forgot to take pictures until today. So you've got three of them.

Hanging out in the cooler

Waiting outside for the bus. We read books, break sticks, or whatever else we think of.

Short and sweet today! Remember next week this blog will be password protected.
