So this is week two of Ethan in public school.  Today he started his gifted class and he seemed excited about going.  It’s still really weird to me to drop him off every morning and never talk to the teacher.  I got an update everyday from his preschool teacher on how he was doing.  So I feel disconnected.  I’ve been encouraged to volunteer so that I can be more connected at the school.  And I have plans to and was going to this week.  But Ian got sick with tonsilitis.  And I’m actually glad that’s what he has because I was afraid it was an ear infection and that we would have to put him through surgery this fall. 

So week two of school and Ian is already sick.  Thankfully I didn’t have anything too major planned that I had to cancel.  Next week starts a bible study I’m co-teaching at church and I’m glad he is sick this week-I’d hate to miss the first week of bible study.  We are all very tired from getting up early everyday to take Ethan to school.  Ethan is extremely tired and trying really hard to hold it together.  We’ve had a few tough moments but God has been gracious and he is teaching Ethan how to handle things. 

And most importantly, I have not lamented about not homeschooling or sending him to private school.  So far that is:)  I’m working really hard on being more intential at home with his biblical education and as long as I don’t develop a habit of hitting snooze, I’ll be okay:)
