OK, there is this part of me that SO doesn't care about A's standardized test results........BUT the other part ........................is SO relieved!!!! Forgive me for that:) But he scored average and higher than average on all the material. So he's offically graduated from 3rd grade!
A is a pretty brilliant kid. I've never doubted his ability to 'learn'. His ability to motivate himself, yes, but not to learn! hahaha I guess though, that I have doubted MY ability to facilitate his learning. I'm just really glad that this first year was a success, with all its ups and downs. All its adjustments and tweeking. All the adventures.
So, as I write this, A is enjoying a month in England with his grandparents! His grandma, the retired teacher, has many exciting things planned. A musical in the West End, surfing in Cornwall, King Arthur's Castle in Tintagel. And of course, just hanging out with his family and his little dog Rinky! I'm really happy for him.
Meanwhile, those of us that he's left at home, are going to use this time wisely!!!
I've started my veggie beds, B and I are going to have some 'girlie' play-dates. AND we're going back to FL to work on the house some more. And Rick and I may be able to sneak in an Anniversary getaway. Just the 2 of us!!!! Keep your fingers crossed that we can pull it off. B is still pretty attached to me, especially at night. But her Nanny & Poppy, thankfully, are cool with co-sleeping! hahaha
