RESULTS ARE IN....

We received the results from the test yesterday afternoon. Mariah has a urinary track infection and a stomach infection. I have consulted with her pediatrician at home and will get her medication from the states and do a 2 week course of antibiotics instead of the 30 days they want me to do here. The doctor also wants to take another blood draw in 30 days to make sure the infection is gone. I think these folks are vampires around here they want to draw blood for everything.
I plan to head to the states next week. I have a over night in Durham to pick up some warm winter clothes before going to Ohio.
We have been invaded by mosquito's and I am sending spray for the kids to school. We have had so much rain. I want to do my best to dodge the dengue, so many kids we know have had it and tell us it is awful so we have our eyes and ears out for flying things.
The report cards for Drew and Mariah were great, Drew received all A's in all his core subjects and Mariah received great marks. I must admit that his grades in the specials were not as outstanding and I have taken it upon myself to meet with the teachers, director and board members. They have a different system for grading music, PE, art, computers, Spanish etc and this system is what I call impression GRADING and is not acceptable. I am wondering if I just have to much time on my hands and should not sweat the small stuff but when a teacher can not explain or tell me how he came about a certain grade, and got your child confused with another and to top it off says he has missed alot of school when he has PERFECT ATTENDANCE, I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THIS...So I will persist until I am satisfied or until they lock me out of the school :)
No worries the director was in complete agreement with me and is helping me get answers and grades changed and to educated the teachers on how to evulate children.
On another note we had a great school event today. FUN FAIR. I was in charge of the bead table and this was a great hit with many beautiful things being made. The kids had a blast and we finished just before the rain arrived. I hope to post some photos soon.
I am very tired, I am going to sleep and try and catch up on some much needed rest.
Sweet dreams,
Missy, Mariah and Drew
