Melia's Preschool: Starts Wednesday

I know a few of you have more than a few questions as to why we, as adamant homeschool parents, are putting Melia in preschool. So I will attempt to quickly (because I have a lot to do this morning before work) explain.

A few years ago, when Melia was little, we learned a lifelong friend of ours was starting a preschool in Wenatchee. At the time, we agreed that we would like to send Melia because we want to support Becky. When Melia was 3, I learned from Becky that she rarely had any openings and God was truly blessing her in this calling. So we wrote off the idea of sending her, which was fine.

This fall, Melia is 4, and we learned from our friends at church, who happen to be Becky's brother's family, that she bought a house and shop property over on our side of the river, plus it is only about 7 blocks from us! And because she moved, she lost some students, and therefore has openings. So we have her a call, and got Melia signed up.

Why is it a God thing? Because if we were to put her in preschool, this is the only one we would choose (truly, the only one we had any desire or leading to send her to). And Becky was trusting Him to provide for her in this entire moving process, and He is using us as one piece of the puzzle. All the details came together easily, just in time to start the year. This is a Christian preschool, and Becky is someone that I can trust with teaching Melia about God. I am excited for Melia-- she loves Cubbies, so I expect that she will adore Miss Becky!

She will go Wed-Fri, 8:30-11:30am. And Kiera and I are welcome to help anytime :-)
