Big Little Guy is Ready for School

My little guy has been unfailingly correcting me if I were to call him "my baby",insisting he's a little boy now :) And this week, he's upped the game, claiming he's a "big boy now", and "so ready for school". 


Oh how time flies... I miss having a tiny babe in my arms... 


Is it maybe time for the little guy to have a little sister/brother..? ;-)


But back to a closer issue at hand: school!
Can't believe how a subject so important managed to slip out of my mind! 
I have to start surveying good Pre-Ks around the neighborhood, and pronto!


There are a few options: 
  1. Option A: a religious school, respectable, been around for more than a decade. But a little TOO religious for my taste...  
  2. Option B: another religiously affiliated school, respectable, new-ish (well, newer than Option A there), but the Principal is a neighbor who'd offended my Mum, and for that, I want to avoid having to maintain constant relations with the person.
  3. Option C: a secular school, nice, with outdoor classes. But a bit too far, and I don't want to have to use the pricey school bus or drive to-and-fro every day.
  4. Option D: a secular school, within walking distance, near rather busy road, but with ample playground area. 
  5. Option E: a secular, widely known "brand-name" school, within walking distance but rather small, not sure where kids'll play outdoors. 
Viewing my options I think I'm leaning towards Option D.. will enquire tuition fees etc tomorrow morning.
