Happy New Year everyone!

I have a prayer request regarding my daughter's day care. I am a full time grad student and a research assistant for one of my professors, so she will be in daycare 2 or 3 days a week and home with DH on the nights that I have class (he works during the day).

I am starting to have a really hard time with the idea of sending her to daycare. I knew it would be hard, but I had no idea how difficult it would be. Right now we have planned for her to go to a daycare about 5 miles from here that I have heard is really good. It's close by, but we only have one car (that DH takes to work) so I won't be able to go see her or anything. This means that she'll be there for a full 8 hours. Since she'll have to stay the full 8 hours, I'll only put her in that day care 2x's a week.

My other daycare option is the school's daycare which is on campus and within walking distance from our apartment and my work. We are on the waiting list for this daycare, but they only have 8 spots so it is unlikely that she will get in. Even if she does get in, it's unlikely that they will have a part time spot open up. Since I am a graduate research assistant, I only work 20 hours/week and putting her in full time care would cost more than I make. Plus, I don't need or want full time care.

So my prayer request is that a part time spot would open up in the on-campus daycare so that I can be near my baby. I would be able to go over and breastfeed her at lunch time (lessening my need to pump which is good since there is no good place to pump!), and she would have shorter days at daycare since their part time spots are 3 days a week.

I feel a little silly asking for this, and I know that it's unlikely she'll get in...however, I know that nothing is too insignificant or insurmountable for God! If I can't get her into the daycare on campus, maybe pray that I'll be okay with sending her to the other place? Right now the idea of it makes me just want to cry.

Thanks girls. Praying for you all.

Yeah I can understand you not wanting to put her in the other daycare for 8 hours. That is a long time and being that you wont be able to stop by would be very hard. Is it possible that DH can stop by since he will have the car? Or do you have any close friends and family that you can leave her with? I am going to pray that God does the impossible in this situation and gives you the best daycare that you need.

praying for you, Someday - tough moment for sure, but you are right that nothing is too big for God! is there any possibility of a private or home daycare or maybe that isn't something you would consider either.

your on my list, girly!

 

[willbamom1day]

someday your in my prayers - May God's will be done

 

[ready4onemore]

Someday, I will be praying that she gets in on-campus part-time. God will make it so, in Jesus's name.

Keeping you in my prayers someday

Welcome, Maxina!

I'm praying for you, someday!

I have a praise to report....

DH & I ran out of $$...completely (due to Christmas and him being out of work for three weeks) ...and there wasn't enough gas in the truck for me to get to work everyday this week. I took my 2 year old and we prayed together and God provided!

 

[maxina]

Wow, thanks Andella for the quick response! I am beggining to love this place, and i know God is gonna answer as fast!....

 

[andella95]

I used to feel totally alone on here, too, as there were so many threads about psychic predictions and Fertility Spells. We're not alone!

 

[mrskcbrown]

Andella: That is awesome. God will always provide just for the asking! He is awesome!

Welcome maxina! So happy you are here!
