The daycare dilemma

The day is coming soon when we'll need to put Lucia in daycare. I'm dreading it as is Jon. We've known that there wasn't the possibility of one of us staying at home with her and for so long we've been focused on getting into a daycare that the realization that we have to do it has been put on the back burner. Now we are faced with two choices, either the daycare we were wait listed on that we're now into or a nanny share with our friend Chris and her daughter Lilly. There are pros and cons to each and really - neither sound fabulous because it means we'll be leaving her in the hands of strangers (or at least not family) three days a week. I'm taking comfort in that its only 3 days and Pam will be taking her one day and I'll have the other day. For now, until we win the mega millions jackpot - that will have to be enough.
