Congratulations and keep us posted.

I just wanted to add, even though you aren't back in school until fall, your college is likely fully staffed during the summer. Set up an appointment with the financial aid office to find out what is available for your education. Also, call some of your local daycare centers. I am on a Board at a daycare center in my area, and we have several clients that receive assistance. It has different names in different states. If you call one that does not accept state aid, ask if they can refer you to one that does. It's always good to have more than one daycare option.

Also - my children go to a state certified home daycare provider. She used to accept state aid also, but now only has private pay. Still - there could be many in your area. Check with your local Child Resource Center on listings of those. My daycare provider used to charge $2/hour for up to 4 hours. My 11 year old son, still refers to her and her husband as Mamaw and Pappy. Your daycare providers become such a part of your children's world.

Good luck!!!
