Our lease is up in the fall anyway, so we'll just move a little closer to the school (UWS if DD gets in to Anderson or UES if she gets in to LL). We have another DC at home, but he's under 1 year right now. We'll still plan to move to a good zone so our public school options are good for him, too. We plan to move the kids to private school by about 4th or 5th grade, so maybe the youngest will do private all the way through. [ Reply | More ]

I don't think it makes a big difference either way. You will apply to a few schools in your area, you will get accepted to all, some or none. If none, there are plenty of alternative preschool programs out there. [ Reply | More ]

just about everyone ovulates 14 days before they get their period. (Cycle length varies in the time from you period until you ovulate, if you think of your cycle in twe simple phases). The easiest way to tell and has always worked for me: Egg White Cervical Mucus...yep, exactly what it sounds like. Your body makes its own lubricant so it is easy for sperms to get to gettin'.
