DO NOTHING!

I am NOT one of those people to sit back and DO NOTHING.  If something happens I need to react, I need to resolve… I need a plan.

I was pregnant with Rebekah when we were waiting to hear about Kindergarten Lottery for Elyzabeth in the fall.  In March, we found out she did NOT lottery in to any of the schools that made day care easy for us.  She was simply in the standard half day kindergarten – in a different district than our daycare. 

So, I started planning… I actually had a plan, and 3 backups... just in case.

  One of the back up plans was me staying home.  We could make it if I stayed home with both girls… Not my favorite idea, but it would do…

Luckily (For both my sanity and my child’s) the school called me and she made it into the full day kindergarten class up the road from our house.

Catastrophe – adverted!

So now, as I have agreed to do nothing – I am going slightly insane!

We met with the school again yesterday.  This time we met with the principal and the reading instructor.   The assessment from the reading instructor was EXACTLY what I had been telling the teachers last week.  My daughter is REALLY REALLY good at guessing.  She doesn’t read, she “improvises.”  Words she should sound out, she guess… Obviously, She is not reading at grade level.

Since spring break is next week, and the results of her testing will be available April 13th, we have agreed to do nothing.  Yep –Do NOTHING!  No research on schools, or tutors to hire.  I will not be calling schools to checking on waiting lists.  Basically, I will ride the breeze – Go with the flow!

WAIT!?!?!?! WHAT!?!?!?

Yeah, soooo NOT happening! 


Now where did I put that application for Sacred Heart?....
