Christmas greetings to all my daycare friends,
What a wonderful year 2010 has been. I have to praise God for the many ways He has blessed me in relationship with you parents and in caring for your children each and every day. Although the look of our group has changed a bit as some have moved on to full centers and/or some have had to leave due to a parent losing a job, God has been constantly faithful bringing the loveliest new children to continue blessing Sandra and me. Today we lose one more, Preston, as he moves on to a center full of children his age. I know he will flourish in his new environment but we will miss him indeed.
This month we have learned about the letters J,K &L, the number 4, the color blue and the rectangle shape. We have concentrated on the miracle of Christmas … the birth of our Lord Jesus. We have had fun singing Christmas carols, working on Christmas pages, viewing Christmas movies, hearing Christmas stories, and long talks about Jesus and who He is. It’s been a lot of fun. I always enjoy Christmas with the children as it gives me just another opportunity to share my love for Jesus with these little ones.
We have a new little one joining us mid January. Her name is Kinley and she will be three months old when she begins with us.
I will be here Monday and Tuesday of next week only and leaving on vacation on Wednesday. I pray everyone has a blessed holiday and experiences the joy of Jesus and the spirit of His birth and rebirth in our hearts. I love each one of you. Merry Christ and Happy New Year.

Grandma's Philosophy
Research shows at least 80 percent of a child's brain development occurs by age three & as much as 30% of that brain capacity can be lost without a nurturing environment that encourages learning during those early years. The first years bring "doors of opportunity” that open a child’s life forever. Working hand-in-hand with parents, we provide a balanced mix of love, playtime, rest, devotions and learning activities, always striving to foster self-esteem, in a Christian focused environment as our little ones walk through these early doors of opportunity.
About Grandma
I strive to honor God in everything I do. I enjoy motorcycles, motorboats and scuba diving. I love my husband and my family and I adore my grandchildren. I have always had a heart for children. If children are around, I'm frequently the one on the floor playing with them. After 20+ years in HR, Accounting & Office Management, I chose a self employed venue in child care with aspirations of making a difference in the lives of children. I am a certified Professional Child Care Administrator licensed with the TDPRS to care for twelve children, ages infant thru pre-kindergarten. I employ one full-time assistant. I love my job but it's hard to let go when it's time for the children to move on. Even though they are not my grandchildren, I bond with them as if they were. Alas, tis the nature of the business. But if I can instill in them an excitement for learning, sow a few Godly seeds in their lives, if they can see Jesus thru me, it's certainly worth it.
About Ms Meagan
Megan has worked with children for many years both in the day school and Bible school environment. After trying her hand as a Paralegal, she decided to change her career path, go back to school and is now enrolled in college courses both on-line and at night at a local community college. Megan is focusing on a degree in Early Childhood Education/Child Development. Working here at GHD will provide her opportunities of practical application and she likes the aspect that it will allow her time to work on her studies while the children are napping. She anticipates staying with us for three years while she continues her studies and then pursues a career in the field of Early Childhood Education. I’m thrilled with the direction God has led me in finding Megan.
