We started back to school this past week. All was good. Josh loves being in 5th grade and all the "new" things he gets to do. Brandon didn't like as much but has learn to enjoy.
They are both going to do safety patrol in the afternoon and Josh is adding his in the AM as well. Josh has wanted to do this for two years and his finally going to do safety patrol at his school. He is so exited for this it is really sweet. I hope he likes it as much as he thinks he will.
I am a bit bummed though. Joshua does not have the same teachers as Brandon did. I wanted Josh to have the teachers his brother did so I can say "see it isn't me" my kid is not being over protected or mother... he doesn't get it. The teachers look at me like he is fine.. but I know what my child really gets and what he doesn't. If you knew Josh in school... he gets it. He is so far ahead in "getting it" that you don't need to worry about him. He will get his assignments and follow up etc.. (unlike another child that has no clue). I just wanted the teachers to know I am raising healthy kids.
Brandon is so all over the board and unfocused and well Josh is so focused it is scary. I wanted the teachers to know I can raise a "normal" child. I feel they still look at me cross eyes and making it up.
Oh well, I know what my kids need and if I get the looks at least my child wil get the help he deserves and need.

Luckily, we have teachers that are awesome. However, up until now, Maggie has had the teachers that Daniel had and so they had experienced him already, so Maggie didn't seem to "out there". We'll see how Maggie does this year, must admit I am a little worried. She has the same teacher as Ben had in 3rd grade, she is sweet, but not sure she will be able to handle Maggie. I am a little worried about this year. Ben is going to 6th grade and is super-excited. I love comparing notes with you!!! Here's hoping that they all have a great year
