We truly owe so much — SO much – to our daycare providers, whomever they may be.

I hope that he handles the transition well, I’m sure that Nina – and you, of course – have prepared him for it… but it can be hard no matter what. Good luck and good luck to Thomas in preschool!

Wow, that is incredible. It must be incredibly reassuring for you to have someone you can trust with the most important people in your lives. My wife and I didn’t have anything like that available – at least to our knowledge and research – which is part of the reason why we decided it would be best for me to stay home with our son.

Does Caroline go to Nina, also?

And, you know, once they are a part of the family, they stay that way. She is going to miss Thomas just as much as he misses her! So keep her in the loop. She’ll be attending his high school graduation, I just know it.

It’s so refreshing to read a post about a good daycare provider out there. Sometimes we have to wonder if they really exist. How lucky you guys were to find her. And how lucky for her that you appreciate that fact so much

Ben, I adore you. In fact, I’m going to make you my follow Friday blogger…seeing how this is post what four this month? Well that and I love your writing. ;) But if you don’t stop making me cry, I’m going to throw a shoe at you.

Awww. Sweet little Thomas. We had a Nina, but her name was Leslie. Just think what a great start she has helped give him, so that he can go on to do even bigger and better things in preschool and beyond. Thomas and Nina are both lucky. :)

In this world of flaky child care providers, it’s so nice to hear that your family was able to find a caring person to watch over your son. With such a stable foundation from you, Liz, and Nina…your son will do fabulously in preschool.

So great that you found someone so perfect for Thomas. And even greater that you recognize the role she’s played and appreciate her so fully.

It’s hard to find good child care, but when you do you just KNOW it. I’m sure Thomas will always have a place in Nina’s heart the way she will always be in his (and yours & Liz’s).

Good luck in pre-school Thomas, what a great new adventure.

*Sigh* I keep thinking, “Last Nina day….” over and over. I love who he is and I don’t for a minute forget what a major part of that comes from her. I know how lucky we were to find her. Makes me want to have a third just to keep Nina in our daily lives as long as possible. Haha! Also, on a funnier note, I keep thinking of the Friends episode where Chandler and Monica move in together… “The end of an ERA!”
