New place

This evening during Lyla's bath, I taught her the song "Row Row Row Your Boat." She sang the first three words followed by gibberish. It was a proud moment.

We'll probably switch daycares this summer. We're thinking (*thinking*) about a second baby, and the reality is that we can afford this daycare with one child, but not with two. Plus, Lyla's a toddler now. Does she really need the red carpet and the caviar?

So we toured a couple places today and liked one of them. They don't have the leather chairs in the front lobby, the oak desk in the director's office, or the parking lot full of luxury cars. But they do have a bunch of kids who look happy to be in school.

Maybe this new place is cheaper because there's less in the budget devoted to meaningless glossy things that are more for the parents than the kids.
