Yikes!

I have to put my kids in daycare... now for those of you not familiar with daycare, that's the place you drop off your kids while you're at work and in turn you give them every dime you earn while you're not with your kids. For the past couple of months a friend of ours has been watching Kathryn and Jared but she just informed me that she won't be able to do it anymore, so the search begins. So far I've found a couple of places that aren't too horribly overpriced, and by that I mean $200 a week for both of them. Now figure that I have to pay that no matter what, and there are 52 weeks in a year. Let me do the math for you... that's $10,400 a year!!! Isn't that insane! I guess it's a small price to pay to have children and be a working mother. I just can't believe that we're going to be paying $800 a month, that's a Porshe payment! LOL Oh well, what am I going to do, I have to pay it because I have to work. I can only hope and pray that whomever I hire to watch my kids will treat them with tenderloving care, afterall they are my greatest blessings.

    The daycare is at a home...by 4th and Grove. 909-446-1771. I only priced them for the hour and just need someone for a few hours a week on Wed's. But so far so good. My cousin used the daycare for almost a year when he daughter was younger then she got into the place down the street from her work.
