Good job for following your mom-stincts, not to be confused with neededing deoderant. ;) Fun fun fun! I'm enjoying your honest banter. :) Good for you for doing what was best and not buying into the hype that somehow kids “need” public schools to be normal and healthy.

Are you the Jackie I know in real life?
I'm so sorry you had such a hard time with your oldest. It's heartbreaking, right?
I hope all continues to go well, and if you ever decide to bring him home – let me know – I'll find you all the help I can for the transitioning to home from school phase.
Thanks for commenting and letting me know you stopped by. I love hearing from you!

It took me back to when my oldest was in Kindergarten and 1st grade. I was in mild labor on meet the teacher day and bed rest for the 1st 2 weeks of his kindergarten year. Then of course the baby came. He cried & cried and i was told all the same things. By the 2nd 9 weeks he did adjust better but never completely. 1st grade was not much better. 2nd grade he made GT and what an inprovement, 3rd grade the same. Now he is begging me not to let him go into a "regular" class. All I can do is pray he tests good to continue Gt. If not, I'm afraid its gonna be Kindergarten all over again! Anyway...I just started reading your post and WOW! I don't know how you do what you do, but keep it up. It is an inspiration to me. Suzanne, That was the most honest letter I have ever read.
