i wish i could take all the credit for having good kids, but i cant. i think... i think it all has to do with god. he knew id have some really hard times here and wanted me to have all the support and love i could when i did. and my kids? they are there for me. they make me laugh, they make me happy, they bring peace to me, they make me proud, i hope to be a good mother and be able to raise them well and the way god meant for them to be raised.
anyways... here is what my schedule was like today...
09:40 meeting with pboys teacher
10:00 meeting with olis teacher
10:40 meeting with kinos teacher and all his therapist... "ocupational, speech, special ed, physical... 2 more... sigh...) that one lasted about an hour :/ which made me late to my next stop. but i got to go see where his afternoon class was, where he spends time learning academics on a smaller group level. it was nice.
anyways, by the time we left, it was around 11:40 and we rushed to KFC in town. where i got the kids a big bucket family meal before i dropped them off at the twins house for them to babysit them. at least this way, they would have had some food for lunch. i know they would have been fed at the twins but i also know i have 5 kids and its a lot of food.
anyways, i dropped them off at the twins around 12pm and grabbed some chicken for me and took off running to the middle school here to try to hunt down isabels teachers in their classrooms... its a big school i think! i saw only 4 of them. i am sooo proud of my bel. they had good things to tell me :) i hit it off with one teacher in particular. she was oh so cool. we laughed and laughed. we got my humor and i got hers. i saw her science teacher, i saw the math and reading and home and careers teacher and the social studies one, all in one hour. i had to hurry because the meetings were to be closed at 1pm. but since i had been running around all day with the other kids' teachers... i did my best is all i can say. considering all the crap we went through yesterday with the car getting that ugly flat.
waiting for someones teacher to be ready to see us.

Gina, I don't care what you say. I've seen you in action. You're a WONDERFUL mother and those kids are good kids partly because they are a godsend and partly because of you. So take some credit!
ReplyDeleteI hate those long waiting days too. Grr..
Gina! I've read all your blog posts - and I love them! I miss you! So good to hear how you and the kids are doing. I do have to say that I am proud of my nieces and nephews too, but with an awesome mom, there is no surprise that they are so wonderful!!
