We met with Christian's new sitter, today.Christian was his charming, little social self and soon had her totally in love.
He managed to charm Trina, her husband and her 4 boys with his constant smiling, wiggling and jumping.
Tish and I spent the evening getting all his stuff ready for tomorrow. We tried to make sure we didn't forget anything. Bottles, formula, diapers, wipes, clean clothes, burp cloths, bibs, blankets, toys, baby food, cereal, bowls, spoons, diaper cream, sun screen, lotion, his jumperoo, socks.... I hope we got everything. I am sure Trina will let us know if there is something else she might need. We put together a list of emergency contacts, Tish made out a feeding schedule, and we told her everything we could think of, to make her day with Christian, go a little easier.
Christian is very social and loves people, especially small children, so I am sure all will go well. He is not used to a quiet environment, noise will not bother him.
I did tell her he is a bit spoiled. She totally understands that. After all, he has been cared for by his Grandpa and Grandma, during the day, for the last 3 1/2 months and his Mommy before that.
Trina is an experienced child care provider and has a home based child care business, she has only two or three other children that she currently cares for. Christian is the only infant.
I am afraid he will be even more spoiled.
Now, I am trying to decide what I want to take with me tomorrow, to start setting up my office.
I think I will just take a few things this time and by Saturday, I hope to have everything in place.
Tomorrow, I will be mainly, getting acclimated to all the new people. We have a new Administrator and most of the Administrative staff has recently changed. Although I already know most of them, I have not worked with them in this atmosphere. I will be meeting the Administrator for the first time tomorrow and he is my immediate supervisor. I will not be involved with the clinical end of things anymore. I have not seen my office recently. Last time I was in there, Cindy was the occupant. How strange that feels!
Anyway, tomorrow begins a lot of major changes in our house.
Thank you Lord for all the blessings. Thank you for helping us find someone who is caring and trustworthy to care for Christian. Thank you for leading us to the right people to cover my vacancy on the night shift so I could start my new job. Thank you for always being there and always answering my prayers. I realize that even if the answer is "no" or "not yet" something good always follows. You are always faithful. Amen.
