Testing for Speical ED

Okay, first...yeah I kinda forgot about my blog again. Until I was searching for something in my old myspace blog. So I figured I might as well come back over and update this one.

Dennis first report card this school year was pretty bad. Not all F's...but more than I wanted to see. The lady who was his teacher was out until October, since she'd had a new baby, so it was a bit confusing with the sub teacher. The first parent teacher meeting we had, she was pushing to get him in a resource class to help with his reading. She told me it could take up to 6 wks, because of testing they do. Now, he done all these test back when he was 3 yrs, to get into the special Ed pre-k...but since he did so well in Kindergarten, at the end of the year when I signed for him to be took out of speech, it signed him out of all the special help. (I did not know this, at the time) So...way more than 6 wks pass by...the regular teacher is back at school. The next report card was actually better. We had a D, and a few C's and actually a B in math. I was so happy! Until the next one came...it was worse than the first report card. So, I had a meeting with the teacher, she is a strange woman...but we talked about going back to special ED. She said she hated putting kids in that class, but I told her I thought it was best. He is so far behind, there is no way he's catching up. And I do not feel even repeating 1st grade will help. This time next year we would be in the same spot.

So...special ED testing has started. Now that teacher was very nice, even though she talks so fast its hard for me to catch every word she says. She gave me her personal cell phone number! Which I was very happy!!! No other teacher has gave me their home phone for me to get in touch with if needed. She gave D an eye test at school, he failed. So last week we went to the eye dr. LOVED the man!!! He was so great, even with Isaac in the room too going wild! lol. D does have my blind as a bat eyes...He is very excited to get glasses.

Here is a picture of him with the frames he picked out!

He just can't wait for them to come it! He asks everyday if the eye dr. called!

He also finally lost his first tooth, then lost 4 more! This kid is seeing dollar signs on those teeth, and is saving up to buy another Zhu Zhu pet. He has 5 dollars, so we're over halfway there!!!

Isaac is just being Isaac. Growing up way to fast. Doing great on the potty!!! Talking up a storm. I can't believe that in a little over a month my "baby" will be 3 years old. Seems like yesterday he was born! Just to throw in..here is a picture of him!
