I'm Back

I don't post that often but typically comment and am around but with the last few weeks of summer, we traveled and the kids were home with me.  I actually took 2 weeks of PTO and it was great.  My 1st grader who is 7 and has ADHD has now been diagnosed with dyslexia.  Its all so overwhelming and a week into school, she is already struggling.  My kindergarten on the other hand is a total sponge so its hard to deal with both ends and keeping both feeling good about themselves but we are doing all we can.  We met my 1st graders tutor last night, they will meet once a week and we will get her more special ed at school once we get the official report back.  So stressful but the girls are loving being back in school, back in routine and all of that.  We started last week.

Awesome that you were able to take some time with your family in Aug!  It's such a crazy time of year,  it will calm down soon as the routine evens out.  Good luck!

August and September have been crazy around here too. I'm hoping things will calm down before the holidays. And then we start all over again!

Sounds like an overwhelming start to the new school year.  Hope all goes well with your 1st grader getting the help needed.
