School Drama for Mariah..

I have decided to post the dreaded blog I wrote about Mariah getting suspended from school. I have thought long and hard about posting this but have to remind myself that this blog is about the journey and that if I were going to document and write about our life I would try and keep it as real as possible. I have said it many times before and will probably say it many times in the future but honestly there is never a dull moment with Mariah.
 I received the call around 1pm that there had been an incident in the girls bathroom where Mariah had hit a classmate on the head. I was inform that I needed to come to school because she was going to be suspended for "a couple of days". I arrived at school to speak with the principal and she was away at a doctors appointment. I was told that the girl Mariah hit had hit her back and it was reported to Mr.Harrison by a boy who was looking in the girls bathroom.
 I thought to myself really you are suspending her, taking her position of ambassador away and not letting her attend the party for the 5th grade class on the final day of school. WOW this is serious.
 I have always tried to stay supportive of the teachers but I thought this was a bit much. I chose to go along with it. Life lessons are so hard to learn and I guess thats why we call them lessons. Raising this spirited outgoing girl is one of the hardest things I have ever tried to do but I am determined to stay the course and do my best to help make her to be the  best SHE can be.
We increased her medication to help with her impulsivity and I hope to see results soon. She says the new medicine makes her stomach really hurt so we will keep a close check. For all of those friends and family raising out of the box kids my advise is simple .... take it one day at a time and pray often for Gods guidance and patience. I WILL SUCCEED
