I am guilty of giving in to wants in an effort to create happiness. We had a major upset over the things "needed" for happiness in an American Girl catalog yesterday. I totalled up over $3000 desperately needed items, with real tears to go with it. Our culture feeds the notion that external things equal happiness, and not even just material things. I finally suggested we go for a bike ride and things calmed down. You are lucky to have choices in preschool. In our town we have the parks and rec preschool with limited hours, and some christian daycares. I quit my full time job and went back to the parks and rec. Nothing against Christians, I just didn't want bible study at preschool. Hi- thanks for visiting the mundane babble that is also known as my blog.
