school part ll

i am starting to wonder if anyone is reading this blog because no one ever comments. please please just say hey and let us know your out there.
i returned to school with some time to spare before pick up. i was able to take all the supplies to each class and give mariahs teacher a rug for her class. when i sat on the floor to put a puzzle together with mariah this morning i had dirt and other nasty crap all over my hand and clothes. ms.vesna was so thankful and happy and pulled up the yuck flooring and put down the rug down right then and there. this is a rug we used for a long time in drews nursery and in our kitchen.

mariah did NOT want to leave school and had a super day. drew also had a very good day and said he liked it very much.
mr.mack drews teacher was so positive with his comments about drew and said he was super and so thoughtful, he said that he could already tell it was going to be a great year. the only challenge was spanish class, drew said that all the kids could speak great spanish and he know nothing but that he was assigned a special teacher to work on his spanish everyday. he said "mom the on thing is she does not speak english and doesn't seem to understand a word i say in english" i told him its's just like a sports game and he has the challenge to figure out how and what to say. his reply great idea mom.
drew had homework tonight. he had to watch cnn and write a one and a half page report on a story of his choice wellllllll drew watched and went on line and chose the micheal vick story he has done alot of work-- like 3 hours. mr.mack said you are not allowed to misspell any words so needless to say drew is had at work with his pencil, eraser and dictonary. this is torture and mr.mack and i will have to have a chat in the am or maybe not, drew seems fine. drew has a learning disability in written language and has done great in years past with a special educational plan called an iep for all you folks that know about public education in america this is the plan all children have designed for them. i need to remember i am not in america and have to chill and go with the flow.
we are all tired and will be heading to bed by 830 so i will close for now.
wishing all of you a great nights rest.
peace,
missy, drew and mariah

Your great adventure ended up in my mail box! I receive anything about the name Daffron because that was my grandmother's name and I have a family file. Not sure which family you are; however, am enjoying reading about your relocation.
