First six weeks of school

Things have been going well this school year. TC is mainstreaming more...he loves his teacher. He actually is enjoying school.

Sara is a sophomore this year, she is making more of an effort. Last year it was not good as far as grades went. She is actually passing and doing way better this year. She is in 2 clubs and recently tried out for a play. She didn't make it but I told her to keep trying!!!

I am waiting on respite care to be approved, that will give Sara some extra money. She will start her driving course soon.

Holiday

I have a love/hate relationship with weekends and holidays. TC really had a fit when he asked could he stay home Tuesday and I told him no! The long weekend was nice but those fits are not fun to deal with. Today he did much better.

I am going to a viewing for my dear friend who passed away over the weekend. She took her own life. I am really sad.

Trip pics and school update

Here are a couple of photos from our trip. We rented a pontoon boat that had a second deck and a slide attached. Tc loved it!

This school year is off to a good start! TC has really done well so far. His teacher made a comment about how he has matured. Even the bus driver said he is doing really great. I am very proud of him. I am heading to work today but will be off Monday, and I am only working 6 hours today.

School review

Both of the kids had a great day. Tc came home with an award for helping the other kids in his class. He happily got on the bus this morning.

We were excited to see his friend Jamel moved back and will be attending school next week. Tc and Jamel are besties!!

Mama is tired so I am off to take a bath.

First day of school 2011

Today was the first day of school! I am off to get TC from the bus in a few minutes. Hopefully he did good....he did not even cry this morning. I was so proud!

Almost time for school

This is my kids last week of summer. I know TC is not ready for school to start! Hubby bought him a Wii yesterday and he loves the Mario Kart game that came with it.

Things are still so hot here in Texas so we stay inside as much as possible.
Sara wants to have a sleepover with many girls this Friday. Pray for me!

We are heading out of state the first weekend after school starts. We planned a camping trip with my Mom. It is going to be fun, we rented a cabin!

Common things

Yesterday a customer called in talking about his kids. He was 71 and had a 6 and 9 year old...lol. He had one of those mail order brides! Anyways, he mentioned his girl had autism and we started talking about her and I mentioned TC has autism as well. His daughter is not very high functioning but he talked about what a joy she is. And I said TC is the same. I do count my blessings every day!
