Lately I feel like I have just been reporting the news around here. So I took a day off, mainly cuz I couldn't think of anything to write.
The school 'family crises therapist' sent me a package of pamphlets yesterday. All about teaching respect and disciplining. haha. I am going to send them back and put a note, please forward these to the parents of ____ and ____ as they are the ones who really need some training! The two kids who have been taunting kota. We have counseling today at 3 and I can't wait to tell the counselor what all has happened. I will have to see if I can find her email address just to prep her before we come in.
I think kota will be testing soon in karate for his next level! The instructor has been walking around with a clipboard and making marks after the kids do their kata's and defensive moves. He told kota he has made alot of progress!
Kota's teacher left me a message the other day. Something about a book the kids all published and he would like to set up a time he could give me kota's book. I have been trying to get a hold of him but no luck so far. I hate to call him at home but I might have to do that. Besides, I think today I will get the tee shirt I had made for him.
Me and kota are keeping busy. We went to the library on tuesday. he picked out a Harry Potter book and carries it with him everywhere. I think the book is too hard for him but he insisted on getting it. I read to him from it and he reads on his own.
Yesterday afternoon I was so tired, just from the stress and not sleeping at night. So I told kota I was going to catch a little nap on the couch. I asked him to stay inside. And he was as good as gold. When I woke up, he fixed me a cup of coffee.
He really is a joy to be around. And I know we have issues to work on and thats why he is in counseling. Its just funny to me how the first half of the school year he was a model student. Then when the problems started, the school labeled him as the problem. *sigh* No one said life was fair.
I think today we will clean out the car and wash it. Its really dirty and has a lot of pollen on it! Its a bright sunny day here.
