Topic: Karla
As I've mentioned before, public schools here are not an option at all.
Even though we are planning to move to FL, we still have to get Karla
admitted to a school (otherwise next year, I might not be able to find a
good and affordable school for her). Most good schools here have been
starting at preK or earlier. Well, DH and I decided we needed to get Karla
into a school since her wonderful preschool doesn't go beyond PreK. :(
A psychologist friend had recommended DH's alma mater. We had to fill in an
application, take Karla to psicometric (IQ) tests and an oral exam (sort of
like a job interview). I never thought transferring into PreK was so hard.
We were application 79 for only 36 slots.
Well, this morning DH called me, and told me Karla had been admitted. It
seems she did a perfect oral exam. Must say I'm so happy and proud. :D
It's an excellent school, nearby and affordable (it's a parrochial
school). The school also has sport activities. As long as we are here, we
won't have to change schools for Karla. Needless to say DH is ecstatic.
I got Karla some shades and cute socks to celebrate. She loves shades and
never has enough socks.
Letty will remain in daycare for the next year. Next year she can go to
preschool, wherever we are.
My Update-- I'm studying like crazy for the FL Bar, and just realized I've
gained a ton of weight. Even Karla has asked me why I'm so fat, and has
told me that I need to get into a healthy weight. :P
Once I pass the Bar and undergo the infamous character investigation, I
could be admitted 6-8 mos afterwards. I'm holding on filing the Bar
Application until I pass the exam, just so I don't get heat at my
workplace. Once admitted I can finally go jobhunting.
Gotta say goodbye. Must go to pick up my girls and tell Karla the good
news.
