| Wow! That is one huge gator!
DebK! That is so fortunate! I can imagine your excitement! I am glad they are testing Jaimie. If there are any underlying problems, they can be treated before they build up. Any normal healthy child would feel some aspects of stress from the frustration that he must be feeling. I am crossing my fingers that everything continues to lead in the positive direction. Good luck!
Sandie, I know how missing 2 days here can be! It takes forever to get caught up on everything.
Lita, I remember homeschooling my 2 kids. They were complete opposites as well as the fact that my son had some problems (which was why we were homeschooling in the first place)> He had/has Tourette's Syndrome, so "class" got loud and distracful at times. He was/is ADHD was caused a trememdous amount of problems. However, the WORSE was the 2 hour battles I'd have with him over a 15 minute assignment. Although he knew he could go out and play as soon as he was finished--he still fought me tooth and nail. My DD on the other hand would finish all her homework after I'd finish explaining concepts and such to her and BEG me for more math work! Go figure! lol All I can say is that I am so glad they are grown. Homeschooling was very rewarding, but also very challenging. Keep up the good work. The one thing I learned above all else Rita, was that on bad days when no learning was taking place--I just hung up the towel. On good days when we had our momentum was happening, I could afford to cover several days of curriculum. Public schools cannot do this.
Margaret, congrats on the eye exam!
My thoughts and prayers are with everyone who is experiencing flooding and heavy rains!
Well, I am so pooped and am ready to go to sleep now. It is raining and thundering. Jet-Bo is terrified of rain and thunder and is hiding. lol I am up late as he is also very swollen in his abdomen, which is also hard. I can tell by his eyes and the fact that he is shivering that he is hurting. Plus, he is walking like he has a grapfruit in his belly. So, I am hoping that it is only constipation from the change in his diet.
I hope everyone is having a great weekend! I'm so glad that it has waited until the weekend to rain as I am a desert rat and like it hot and dry! I am a spoiled sissy and would hate to walk all over campus in the rain. lol
