Well, we finally did it.

We finally gave up on driving over to St Ann's in Hamilton for Mass and have registered at Holy Name here in Trenton. Quite honestly the driving factor behind the decision was the need to register Brandon in kindergarten for the coming school year. Our choices are the Trenton Public school system, which is rated excellent and we would be happy sending the kiddos there or St Joseph's Consolidated School which is the Catholic primary school affiliated with Holy Name.

Upon discussing St. Joe's with some of the other Trenton moms whose children attend PPP with Brandon, I discovered if we are registered at the parish, tuition at St' Joe's is just a little more each month than PPP, which makes it doable. So...we will be registering Mr Big at St Joe's this week for kindergarten. Of course this means we will be committed to working St. Joe's BINGO as a fundraiser for at least the next 15 years while all of our kids are there...
