A new chapter

Today marks a new chapter in the girls lives with it being their first day of daycare. Lisa was off to work this morning, heading back to Armatage School after a nearly two year absence. It was a wonderful two years off from work and it really gave her a great opportunity to bond with the girls, but unfortunately the school could not guarantee her position any longer and so the time has come for her to head back to work. My work schedule has also seen some changes in the last couple of weeks with a new work bid taking place, which means I am no longer starting work in the wee hours of the morning and am instead working the afternoon shift. This has actually been quite a blessing for everyone in our family because now Lisa does not have to feel rushed in the morning with getting herself ready along with the girls. Plus I get a chance to hang out with the girls in the morning and the best part, Anna and Sophia will only need to endure daycare for a few hours a day, which I think will be plenty of opportunity for them to intermingle with children their own age and bring home plenty of germs which ought to build up their immunities. And who knows, they may enjoy their playtime with other kids so much, they may be disappointed when we arrive to take them back home and away from the fun. It is all certainly going to take some adjusting to for all of us but we're confident it will be an adjustment we're all ready to take on.
