Having to say goodbye...

Oh, what I have to do tomorrow is going to hurt. I have to say goodbye to a very, faithful, loving and dependable woman. She has been apart of my family for a total of three years. We have become very good friends. We have one thing in our lives that we have been sharing. That is my son. As I'm working on a gift for her, it truly has been a very difficult task. Because I want to give her the world for taking care of my son. She has been wonderful, trustworthy, and a very dependable.
When I was seven month's pregnant I started trying to figure out who to watch my unborn child. We looked at childcare facility's. Meet with them, talk with them, and just look around at the places. We finally pick one out, we signed up at a place called Kid's Corner. It was owned by some friends of my father. They where nice and willing to take in baby boy. But then things turned around when I was eight month's pregnant. We had our last ultrasound done, we found that Carson had major health problem's. So the option of finding a daycare place that would take in a child with health problems was coming to a close.
So I just waited and prayed about this situation that we where in. It was not an option of me staying home, because like many we needed the money. My mom was working. My sister was in college. The only other option would be a babysitter. So like an answered prayer, Kissa Gardener came into our lives. I had went to school with her and was going to church with my sister. She was pregnant and wanted to stay home with her daughter and her newborn. She didn't mind watching another baby.
She started watching Carson February 1,2005. So with an exception of a few months off with her giving birth. And Carson's Surgery's, Vacation's, and Holiday's. She has been our Babysitter for the past 3 year's. The reason for us to leave, is Carson needs to start Preschool. He is three now so I want him to be the best he can be. So I want this extra push on him. So he will be ready for School. So how can you tell someone, who has been such a big part of yours and your child's lives goodbye. Tomorrow will not be easy, but they will be tears of Joy and Happiness. I wouldn't take back any of those years. Because I feel like we have made friend's for life.
