Slightly concerned about school starting!
ok i know I have been the one shouting whoohoo school is starting ! yeah! can't wait, so jealous comments and today , well this week i have started getting concerned! about these things........
- my kids are on the worst schedule ever! making next week a killer i am sure! they stay up until 9pm, 10pm ,11pm, 12am, last night my 5 year old was up until 1:30 am!
- Peyton told me today he is planning on hating 3rd grade. why? what is with the bad attitude? i worry ! he is brilliant. i worry his teacher won't let him read at his desk. i worry about cursive, i worry about having good friends. the boy around the block is in his class! that should be fun. i worry, he's my first and i still worry about all school things every year. i worry he'll get in trouble alot. I worry his teacher will be too mean or too nice and he'll walk all over her. this is the kid i think i should home school, every year a problem crops up. i requested that he get tested again for E.L.P., they tested him in Higley last year and missed the cut off by one percent in December, and when they offered to test him at the end i told them not to bother. because we were moving. Peyton had the highest scores in the whole Higley school district on the standardized testing in the spring. he is smart. just lacking some social skills. and if he is bored he is naughty. i hope his teacher will challenge him.
- Paxton is so quiet and sensitive,. but he is the one always causing the fights. i worry about him. this year should be better, he's already medicated. and miracles happen with that. but his teacher just graduated from school. I'm sure she is excited but i worry about lack of experience. ugh! i already requested a speech evaluation. this is my special speech delay kid. i worry he never got enough speech therapy.
- Liberty , she is a sweetie! all the teachers love her. but she can hardly read going into 2nd grade. i requested a reading evaluation for her, with the basic skills teacher so she can go out for resource. it's those crappy schools we went to the last couple years. she is great at math, but isn't a confident reader. i worry she will get lost in the shuffle. and she has no trouble making friends. she is cute, and a pleaser so that helps but you gotta learn to read. I hope her fresh out of school teacher can help. again excited but less experience. ahhhh that is what i get for registering late, the brand new teacher! and also the lack of reading skills learned in kindergarten at the lame county school, might just do me in!
- JOY she is a nut, i can barely tolerate her and i live day in and day out with the child. she is spirited, and smart. it is reigning her in i worry about! I'm afraid she'll be disruptive. and be so annoying she won 't have friends. Her teacher at least has lots of experience! that will be good. and my friends daughter and a boy around the block are in her class. she is thrilled and her biggest issue about school is that she doesn't get to ride the bus, she has to walk with the big kids. she is all sorts of jealous that Hope gets to ride the bus.
- Hope ahhhh, my baby girl is going to school! at least it is only part time. just enough time to give me some freedom, but not so much that i think she'll feel sad. i hope not anyway. she has never gone anywhere without me! Monday morning the bus will be here to pick her up. For door to door service on the short bus! little cute girly! I feel pretty ok about it, i know her teacher (from Paxton's years in special ed preschool) and my nephew is going to be in her class too. she is so sweet but can be so stubborn, and my biggest worry is she'll take her hair out of the rubber band while she's there and be less cute! why do i worry about that? i have no idea, but i totally do!
- today i though of a new worry! what about Pierce alone in the car! no more running in at QT and leaving the kids in there with "the babysitter of the car" (the oldest one gets to unlock the door for me after I've locked them in and run in and out) that might kill me off quick! unbuckling that big boy over and over. no more running in for prescriptions and to get drinks.

I totally get how you worry . I met Lightnings teacher today. She is an old pro and seeems like she can handle anything but,how do you not worry? My boy has a sad past that still gets the best of him sometimes. I sure hope you get all your last minute stuff done.
I think we all worry about some of the same things. T had a brand new teacher when we moved out here, and I worried about her experience, too, but she was so great!! He loved her and she had so much enthusiasm and stayed after for free tutoring for those that needed it. Hope all goes well!! I'll be thinking about you!
It must be our jobs as mothers to worry so much about our kiddos!! Cody & Kelsey are both in 3rd grade and their teacher asked them to bring a book to read for after they are done with their work. I'm a little worried about their teacher this year. It's a Mr. and I think he is pretty tough on the kids. I hate when I don't have the older ones with me to watch the younger ones, good luck!
I understand the worry...C is just going into kindergarden, but preschool wasn't exactly easy. I am hoping that consitancy will help us out....but I worry so much! I can't believe summer is already over....I hope this next week is great for you!
