When your email inquiry is 3 paragraphs of you "selling" your child to me. I mean,
So-and-so is a delightful, caring and funny child. She is very smart and sweet. She plays well with others, and on her own. She is potty trained, except for certain times. She blah blah blah blah blah.

Honestly, 3 paragraphs!! And then proceeded to name a price that she was willing to pay (uh, you don't decide that?!?) and tell me that essentially, they are looking for care at the drop of a hat because dad never knows when he will be going to work. Not to mention the fact that I happen to know for sure that they were looking for care within the last year, because she already emailed me previously. Why are you switching again?

I know these are all little things, but we have been talking about trusting your gut. So I did. A polite email was sent saying "Sorry, no spaces available!"
