Hi Cheri! Hooray! my kids go back to school Aug 26, can't wait! its been a long summer with them home with their dad, while I work. we did some fun things over summer but no long vacation. hubby was unemployed for 2 months but thankfully he is now back at work. They are tired of eachother!
Kacy, my HLHS girl is going into 5th grade! She's excited she got the teacher she wanted but nervous about who's in her class. Because of Kacy's stroke she still has gross and fine motorskill weaknesses and as she gets older they become more noticable to the kids in her grade. She doesn't get teased but they do treat her a little different. Lord help the first kid that teases her cause momma's coming after them, lol. Kacy is always smiling and positive at school from what her teachers say and my hubby and I have always tried to teach her to not care what others say just be happy about yourself, and so far she seems to have that attitude, just once in awhile she gets down for one reason or another. My biggest fear for her is how the work gets harder each grade and wondering if she can keep up. Math is her worst subject. So by end of first quarter we'll have to see just how she's doing and go from there.
Kacy's sister Kelly(HH) is going into 1st grade. She is also excited but my big issue with her will be getting her up in the morning! She has been a real sleeper in, all summer, so this will be a task.
My big issue, losing the extra 1/2 hr of sleep and having to rush home from work, get them fed and homework, bath and bedtime, 5 days a week! but I do what I gotta do!
Take Care.- Karen mom to Kacy(HLHS/stroke)10 and Kelly(HH)6
