Albuquerque Possibilities

Okay mi gente just wanted to pick your brains for some ideas. Well as you know Angel had a great time meeting all of the family. He has been throwing out suggestions that we move to Albuquerque. I think that would be awesome. But before we decide on anything, I wanted to get the nitty gritty on things like childcare and jobs. I know some of you have kids and know about how difficult it is to find a good childcare place, so let me know what your experience has been. I would love to hear from my tia Bertita who has first hand expertise.
So here are my specific questions:

1. Are there good childcare places that are also affordable?
2. What are the price ranges that you have seen or paid for your lil ones?
3. How is the job market looking in Albuquerque?
4. What other useful information would you have wanted to know before relocating to a place like Albuquerque?

Okay if you have any opinion on any of this, we would really appreciate hearing from you guys.

For now, I have to say that I feel lil tingles of excitement to think that we could possibly be closer to my lovely familia.

Bueno saludos a todo mundo.
Love,
Ruby, Angel, Dante, Esai, Frida, Mya and lil Amira
