Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy!!

Well it has finally happened!! Our wonderful Centre Director, Lisa, is now also owner!! (happy dance, happy dance) Lisa got the phone call at around 2:30 this afternoon. I was cleaning the front foyer and therefore heard her on the phone and from the snippets heard I gathered it was the phonecall we had all been waiting for. After she hung up I immediately asked "Was that it?"
She looked at me with a relived smile and replied "It's mine!!" I let out a peircing squeal of delight which sent shock waves through the centre, and race over to give her a huge hug!! Heads popped out of doors with the general mumble of "What the...?" Jo who had been sitting in the nursery had seen me run from the direction of the kitchen following the sqeal and thought that I must have found a rat or something dead!! PMSL. Penny apparantley got scared to death and it seems she is holding me responsible for the skid marks in her jocks!! But once the reason for the high pitched echo was revealed, everyone was just estatic. We have been waiting for this news since December, and there has just been one holdup after another so you can understand our excitement. For the last two years the centre has been owned by someone who showed very little interest in the centre and showed very little appreciation for the excellent staff she has had keeping it running for her. Lisa on the other hand will put her heart and soul into the centre and already has a wonderful working relationship with her staff. That can only bode good for both children, parents and staff!! So today dawns a new beginning and we will all be looking forward to turning up to Snugglepot Garden (new centre name) for work on Tuesday!! Hip hip hoooray!! (happy dance, happy dance, happy dance!!!!!)
