But I Orchestrated The Whole Thing!
 

So today, one of my DCD's tries to drop a bombshell, buuuut little does he know I planned the whole thing;)

In Janurary I interviewed for my two spots that I have due to kids leaving for school. I plan on keeping one boy for after school, but the other lives in a different district and I thought she'd be gone. In any event I filled the spots immediately. happyface

In February the one DCD *informs* me his child will now be going to school in my district. But doesn't ask about openings. At this point his schedule is so far off what I offer I knew I'd have to give notice. :ouch: but planned on waiting until after preschool is done.

In March I meet the aunt of dcg out at a party. She had been a client but last year I gave notice as her kids were too old for my care. She lost her mind in my foyer but seems to be fine with it now. :rolleyes: She asks if DCD told me that I will have dcg next year. This is where I schemed;) rather that just nod and smile I tell her he didn't really tell me that, and I don't have a spot for her. I figure this way she can be the one to get him new day care and I won't have to be the bad guy (which we all know makes life a lot easier;) )

End of May- DCD gives notice for after preschool. Makes up a story about being off this summer and wanting to spend time with dcg. Apparently he thinks I'm dumb:rolleyes::lol:
I assumed all along that dcg will be going to the same provider aunt has. New provider is somewhat of a doormat so I'm sure everyone will be much happier:lol:
Today - other DCD says "we'll miss you when you go to Mrs D's house!" Now, I know this parent well and I know he thinks I had no idea...:lol::lol::lol:
I almost wish we had a scheming hand rubbing smiley:lol:

Well played!

Congrats! My schemes usually blow up in my face, so it's nice to hear of one that actually worked. :)
