Sad day for us here on Thistle Lane as Jeff took down the pool! Boo! Well, maybe I should say sad day for me, as Ian thought it was too small, Rowan cried because it was too big, and Jeff only used it a few times. I liked floating in it on many occasions. Jeff was a good sport to put up with the care of the pool and dead grass in the yard to aid in my summer happiness.
Ian has been back at it for a week now. Junior High 8th grade. He is happy to NOT be enrolled in Honors English this year. That is just not his subject.
We have had a break for a couple weeks with Rowan's therapy. We canceled one day at the end of summer to go spend some time in Walker. Then I told the gals there was no way we could make it last week with school workshops for me and trying to get a classroom ready. So we are back at it this week. We are cutting down to one session of speech therapy and one session of occupational therapy per week, Mondays and Thursdays after work. (down from 2 sessions of each) It will be hectic for a bit, but we finally met our huge insurance deductible with all those summer sessions, and I feel like Preferred One should take a turn in paying! Once snow flies I doubt we'll want to make the drive to Eden Prairie twice a week...we'll see how things are going.
Rowan is making progress with attempting more speaking, but mostly Jeff, Ian and I understand him because we are used to him. He has been trying more at daycare which is good, because when he started there he didn't say a word.
First day of school went well for me at Oak Grove...back down to normal class size (19) compared to huge size (27) last year. It will be much more productive.
