Joshua woke up good this morning. It took a while - but he was still good and I could get a smile and a giggle after some raspberries. When I mentioned that he needed to get dressed because we needed to go soon, he asked "where are we going?". I got a little nervous, and then said with lots of cheerfulness "you are going to school today". He immediately started crying and my heart broke a little bit. He didn't want to go to school, he "just wanted to go to church". (This is the first night for Wednesday night dinner at church). Oh - it was so sad. My compromise was to take the 3 kids to carpool. He did okay getting to carpool. He still wasn't real excited about going to school - but we all stayed positive.
I walked up to the door with him and Layne and Jacob. He soooo wanted me to go in to the school with him. I had to tell him that the school doesn't let parents go down to the classrooms in the morning because there is so much for the teachers and students to do at that time. He got that quivery little chin and my heart broke a little more.
I ended up sending a note to his teacher. Telling her that he seemed to be okay going to school on Monday and Tuesday and then came home Tuesday after school very sad. This morning he cried and didn't want to go to school at all. I asked her if possibly something had happened or if she had any concerns.
Well - it sounds like that Joshua was getting "too friendly" with one of the kids sitting across from him. This is Malachi from his Pre-K class last year at school. Grandma and I are fairly convinced - even before this year - that Malachi is a bit of a troublemaker. So it is pretty good that he was moved. Just wish she had moved Malachi and not Joshua.
I think he had a better day today. He seemed to have a better day. He didn't cry going to bed when we mentioned he needed to get a good night's sleep before school. Keeping my fingers crossed for the morning.
The kids are kind of sad that we are going to Louisville again. They are worried and missing their Grandmom and Grandfather right now. They will have fun while we are gone, though. They are going to spend Friday night with Wendy / Zachary / Lauren and they are very excited. They get to see Zack play in a scrimmage football game on Saturday.
Layne is very concerned about her Grandmom and she would love to give her Grandfather some hugs. Layne and Jacob said prayers tonight at church in their Clues Crew class for healing for Grandmom.
No pictures from today. Will have to do better tomorrow.
