My kid’s schooling...
My wife called me crying today and told me she found out that there is no space for my youngest daughter at the school my girls have been going to since we got home. My wife is really upset and truthfully another defeat at this point is just tough to bear. Please pray for a spot to open up. Here’s what she wrote on FB...
“Big BIG prayers needed right now as we just found out that there is no room for Mia next fall in the school they have been attending (it filled up even before we enrolled for this semester). I know she will be devastated if her sisters go and she doesn't. I also agreed to help some friends out with childcare starting in August which is a huge need for them and a huge help for us financially. I don't feel like I can put the girls through another school transition right now, so pursuing other schools doesn't feel like a good option. Nothing feels like a good option. The girls have been through SO MUCH CHANGE and this is just really hard right now. Please pray for us as we make some very difficult decisions, and please pray for the girls who I know will be heartbroken.”
