    A sled only works if there is enough snow. The pathway and school yard will still be ice and snow long after the sidewalk to the pathway is cleared meaning the sled won't work for the first part of the journey.

    What it really means is that given the situation you have with the pick ups and drops, you are not set up to take in the 13 month old without letting the older school agers go. That way you would just have the one walk around the long way to and from the other school. When we fill spaces we need to think of all aspects as to how a new child fits in.

    I completely understand. I agreed on taking the 13 month old in November, before the first snow fall. I was under the impression that the city would be plowing the pathway as it is used A LOT by the small school children and families. At that time, I did not realize that the my main pathway would be inaccessible. Otherwise, I would of rethought and prepared accordingly to a new baby starting.
