Sent from my iPhoneA lot on things had to come together for this day. A Ruling for special education services, withdrawal, admission, meetings, registration, and of course shopping for new uniforms.
She had a good first day, but said that all through the day she was missing her old teachers and friends. Ouch, that hurts my heart!
From this move, I hope to see renewed confidence and progress with one on one instruction in her challenging areas. I want her to be brought back to a place she understands and given the time to build at her own pace for awhile. In the meantime I hope to get better control of her seizure activity and pray some of the difficulties subside with better seizure control.
I can't wait for the time that she feels comfortable and loves her new teachers and friends.
She is one brave (and innocent and trusting) little first grader! She believes me when I tell her she will love her new school. She believes me when I tell her that moms have to sometimes choose a different school based on different ways kids learn best. She believes me when I tell her all kids learn to read chapter books at different times. She believes me when I tell her the multiple pills she has to take every day are good for her. I just wish I believed as much as she does. I can only hope I got it right...

We've been thinking about you and Madalyn. She's tough. We miss her. Hope to see you at least by the birthday party.
