New Old School

In our never ending quest to find the perfect daycare/school for Lindsey and Sam we had decided to pull them out of the Montessori school they were going to at the Christmas break.  There were some things going on there that we didn't like.  We were going to put them in a different Montessori school near our house after the holidays but at the last minute decided to put them back in the daycare preschool at my work.  I called and they had a part time opening for them both so we took it.  Now they'll only be going to school 2 days a week - Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Today was their first day back.  It went better than I had hoped.  They remembered some of their old friends and teachers and had a great first day back to the new old school or old new school, it gets confusing.  Once we got home, though, Lindsey had a total meltdown over something very small.  So the stress of the day came out after all. 

I feel so guilty sometimes on how much we've changed schools for the kids, especially Lindsey.  We've always had very good reasons for moving them, but I know it's been a lot of changes.  Oh well, it's like our pediatrician told us at Lindsey's first checkup after we got back with her from China.  He declared her to be in perfect health and then said we had the next 20 years to screw up her life.  I think we've got a pretty good start.
