Needed: One Maid & One Father's Day Out Program

It has happened.  Steven and I have had it up to here (I'm holding my arm way up in the air) with the things at the bottom of our lists waiting and waiting to be checked off.  Poor Steven.  He has to work from home during the day, which equals not doing anything at all.  He doesn't even have an office here.  He has a desk - which is the catch-all-clutter table -  in the middle of the house.  Obviously, he doesn't use it.  I'm sure as soon as he sits down to right an e-mail to a client, Davie lets him know she's still around. 

Today we talked about our options.  We can no longer rely solely on family members to watch Davie every once in awhile.  So many times something happens, like an illness or something, where plans fall through.  We have decided to hire someone to clean our house twice a week.  A good cleaning to make us all feel better about life.  We've also decided to start looking for a good Mother's Day Out program at a nearby church.  We may not be able to get into that until August of this year though.  Anyone know of any programs around South OKC?  I was looking into Bethany First Church of the Nazarene (I have a friend who is a youth minister there).

FIrst Southern in Del City has a WONDERFUL mother's day out program. My brother is actually the preschool minister there and he does a fabulous job. Plus, I think it is one of the cheapest MDO programs in the metro. Its only a hop, skip, and a jump from south OKC. I can getchya some more info if needed. Good luck!

I've heard wonderful things about First Southern too. My cousin and her husband, Jennifer and Neal Livingston run it, (maybe the girl above's family?)and they are wonderful people. I don't know if that is too outta the way, but it may be just the right thing. :) Good luck!!!
TJ and I are trying to hold on until summer. The firestation is crazy and I feel so bad about him having to be up all night and with Faith each day.
In other news, TJ and I are going to church with Holli and Jace. LOOOOOVE IT!
