Connor was up at about 5:45 this am. He was asking how long until morning. He got up and dressed. When I came out of my room he was in a chair reading a book waiting for TV time! I am so proud of him. He is doing very well. As he pointed out he didn't hardly need my help! I guess these are moments to be proud with a little wistfulness rolled inside. My boy is growing.
Faith slept until about 7:30. Awfully late for her. She came out carrying Jap, the new cat we adopted from the pound two days ago. He is grey and white. He is being more mobile. He looked like he was drunk yesterday when he came out of the cage! Poor guy. Had to explain to the boys what the surgery did. Being male, they felt for him!

This morning Faith Tahl has her 3 year check up. I expect she is due for shots as well. I haven't looked, but pretty sure.
We are starting back to schooling on Monday. We were supposed to start this week, but had so many appt & things interrupting that I decided we'd just start Monday. Ian needs to return to public school. I wish I could get him to understand he needs to get the reading part going. Perhaps I need to put him back in school now. I don't know. I will wait until the public school is going though. They are way to busy to deal with this now with school starting next week. We'll see. I just know he hungers for that people interaction.

Well, I asked Ian if he wanted to go back to public school this morning & he ran off upset into his room. I flopped down next to him & asked what I did wrong. He said I kept asking him that. I explained that I needed to know. He said, You know I do. I said fine & went to make a few phone calls.
I got out documents & went to the Special Ed building. I filled out papers & went to Buena Vista where I registered him. I think he will be in the second grade. We'll see. Anyway, that is done & I just need to wait for Spec Ed to call to set up a newer IEP. The new principal seems nice. Younger than I expected. They evidently are doing corporal punishment in the school now. No go for me. No one is going to hit my child.
It was just perfect timing to go up to the doctor for Faith's 3 yr check up. She was very excited. I was her turn to sit up on the table. She didn't even need any shots since she'd gotten her 1st half of Hep A a couple of weeks ago. Nothing for 6 mo more. He said I could take her to Zia for eval if I was worried about her speech. I am not that concerned just now. They won't do anything at her age anyway. I will wait another year then if she needs it, I will get her tested through the public school that offer the Pre-school.
The boys fussed at each other just as we got in the van. Ugh! Perhaps the separation will help them appreciate their playmates a bit more.
We went to WM to get the school supplies I didn't have for Ian. Then we went to Taco Bell and picked up lunch. I stopped at a few places on the way home & then we came home. Tess stopped a couple of minutes later & ate her lunch. She was at her Alamogordo Public School training for working at the cafeteria on base. We chatted, ate lunch, & I labeled items for Ian. We ran into Ian's preschool teacher at Buena Vista. It was nice seeing her. Ian loved her. She was always very nice and writes articles for the Daily News Kit N Kaboodle.
The rest of the day the kids played off & on out in the slip n slide. MSN'd w Tess a bit this evening. It is almost time for the kids to get to bed. Me too! J SM MacLeod
I overspent. Ugh. Me & my messes!
