Blogging for Kids

In activity today, I went to pick up my students. They were blogging with their activity teacher. I couldn't believe how cool this is! The kids log into our school website and they can respond to blogs posted by their teachers. Now this is going to be so incredibly awesome to use in my classroom. Today I asked them how we could use this tool in our classroom. It is going to be great to put a math problem on their and let them comment and put their answer. I am so excited.

Things are getting crazy!!

Well, it is almost holiday season and apparently it is going to be unbelieveable this year. It isn't even November and this week has been insane. Monday, Trey had his speech evaluation for the school district. It went really well and he qualified. I found out that he would only be getting 30 min a week and I was a little disappointed because now he is getting 1 hour. We are trying to get the medicaid stuff finalized so he can continue at the outpatient place with Stacy one other day a week. This will all depend on if we get medicaid. For the month of September speech ws $3,544. We don't pay that because we have Babynet, but you can imagine why we can't afford 1 day a week.

Then yesterday I had to get ugly with the Babynet woman because she is completely incompetent and I have had trouble all year with her. I am moving past that. I also had to cry to my principal(which wasn't hard considering the episode with the Babynet woman!) to get the day off to take Trey to the Craniofacial team in November. We have been waiting 6 months for this visit and they only come once a month because the docs are from Columbia and chalreston. You teachers will appreciate this...The SACS committe is coming that week and heaven forbid us have something to do with our children. Our actual visit is the day before his appointment so I was able to take off, but really. I guess I can't be a mom anymore because my life should revolve around this school district. I am waiting for Michael to win a million so I can stay home or really just work somewhere else. I told him this and he laughed. I wasn't joking. It wasn't meant to be funny!!

Trey and I will be by ourselves this weekend. There is a singing at the Beach and I have NO desire to go. So we are going to clean the house, play outside and visit with friends. Should be a fun weekend!!

Apple Picking

The Anderson's traveled to Flat Rock, NC to visit the Sky Top orchard. BIG Mistake! It was a beautiful day and there were a million people there. Poor Trey! His parents are SOOOOOOO not people people. We stayed long enough to get apples, a pumpkin and let Trey slide. Then we were out of there. We then went into Hendersonville and looked around. It was a fun day.

Trey had a rough sunday. He woke up from his nap around 5:30 and came into the bathroom where I was IN the bathtub. He was rubbing his chest and I asked him if he was ok. He just stood there and proceeded to throw up everywhere. I was naked and screaming for Michael. I used my towel to catch throw up and Michael slept on the couch..:0 Anyway, he was pretty sick last night and is staying with his Grandmom today. Pray that he feels better and the rest of us stay healthy!!
