Almost had a scare today... Since Pre-K is income based, I received a call from the school that he wasn't accepted bc of my income and he would have to stay in daycare another year! I was super livid! I never had a problem before with Mykaila bc my mom was a teacher so I called her thinking it was bc she retired... She hung up mad and called me 2 minutes later saying "I fixed it, he's in!" He was able to meet his teacher and see his classroom! I believe pre-k is extremely important, I just wish it wasn't set only for low-income, bilingual and/or teachers' children bc every child deserves a proper education regardless their circumstances. #blessedmommy #youngmamilife
