Lori is getting married

For the past 6 1/2 years, Lori has been our babysitter. She started watching Connor for me when he was just 6 months old. Lori lost her husband to a massive heart attack (I believe in 2002) when he was just in his last 30's. Left behind was a mother and 3 adolescent boys. She has done an amazing job raising her boys on her own. Now that the boys are grown, she has once again found the love and happiness she deserves. She became engaged while vacationing in Arizona in early March. John asked her to marry him while they were visiting the Grand Canyon!! I'm so happy for her! She and John will start their marriage off in a new home, possibly Clarion. They have set a wedding date for Sept. 25, 2010.

So where does that leave her daycare business? She will watch Maleah and Connor until mid September then I have a new lady interested in starting up a daycare in her home who will put Connor on the bus for me. I can't say anymore about that, because she hasn't given notice to her employer and I don't want word to get back until she's given her notice. As for Maleah, I've decided to put her into Kids N Us Daycare for kindergarten readiness. Connor went there the year before school started and he loved it. I hope Maleah has the same experience.

I was quite nervous trying to figure out how I'd get Connor on the bus since I leave 1 hour before his bus arrives and the surrounding daycares do not bus CL school students since they are not in the same school district. But, I've figured it out and I have a plan. I can stop stressing now. Life is Good!
