I woke up this morning to a call at 7:01 (Yes I was still in bed. I decided to forgo my morning run and stay in bed for an extra hour.) from one of Theodore's nurses telling me that she was in the parking lot I showed her and she didn't know where to go from there. Uh................................................  You know as much as I do. She tried several times to get me to understand, even after I told her who she was talking to, until she finally looked at her phone, realized who she called, laughed, said sorry, and hung up.  Anyway. We are getting ready to start school. Theodore's first day was yesterday and I think he had a good time. I'm really trying to keep my outlook up this year. It's interesting to me how much I fight homeschooling. I wouldn't want to do it any other way.... I just don't want to do it. But this year I have decided to accept my calling and get organized.

We all know that the first day of school for Theodore was less than pleasant for all involved.

He was not happy about it. But he made it to school safely. Although you can tell he wasn't feeling well. Thankfully today was a much different day. He got on the bus without too much fuss. And no crying! And here he is in his classroom! His nurse said as soon as she got him out of his wheelchair he immediately crawled over to the table where all his classmates were sitting and pulled himself up to see what they were doing. Not bad for only the second day! He makes me so proud!
