Accepted!!!

We got the call from the alternative Montessori school last night. They met again and have now decided to accept T and M! We are very happy. We think this will be much better for them. Now for the pragmatic part. We need to finish getting driving licenses and need to buy a car! I had wanted to avoid getting a car until now, but on the bright side it will give us much more freedom to travel. There is a two week vacation coming up and the kids would probably start at the new school sometime in November.

On the down side our luck hasn't held completely. My work computer has crashed and refuses to start up now. Fortunately I have 99% of my critical files already backed up. Anyway, this is an easy trade (luck wise) for the kids to be in a better school situation.

(PS - V said when she was at the school the other day to pick up M all the teachers were "peaches and creme" to her. The pressure from the top seems to be filtering down.)

Brilliant news about the school situation - lets hope it is better for T, and that M adjusts easily enough too.

Thank goodness you could pull some strings though - I'd hate to think how long the saga could have drawn out for, knowing the German 'authorities'!
