Back to School
All 3 boys went back to school today! Kenny was very grumpy as usual. He is 15 now and he is such a smart kid, but boy oh boy does he not like school.
Andrew is 16, almost 17 and finally after all these years of high school is happy and content on going to school. I wonder if it has something to do with going to Tec for Auto Technology.......Hmmmm....Yep! I think that's it.
Jonathon is 4 and will be 5 in July. He likes school. He misses school when he is not there. I just hope that he remains healthy because he has been very very healthy so far this winter. ((knock on wood)). We have not heard back from Miss Maggie about swimming. I hope she calls soon because I would love for him to go again.
I have been purging! Paperwork....paperwork ....and more paperwork. I finally ran across a website that explains what to get rid of and what to keep. Wow! I was keeping a lot of crap that I didn't need to keep. I have been shredding for days.
I am also re organizing Jonathon's room and my room....which in turn makes a mess for my kitchen. I use to have a whiteboard in my kitchen, which no one wanted to use the correct way so I took it down. Now I am going to hang it in my room above my desk. Then it will be right in my face everyday if I need to jot something important down. And I am going to purchase a cork board also and hang above my desk so I can put important papers on.....like Jonathon's IEP. I need this in my face so I can remember and make sure he practices what needs to be done. I am really concerned that he is not going to be able to transfer to kindergarten next year. I would like him to stay with his friends that he has been with for 3 years or more, but I know that that is not the most important thing. But some of their expectations are a little extreme for him....if you ask me. (more about that another time)
So my kitchen will need to be painted.....Jonathon's room looks much better....more room to play and not so cluttered looking. I still have some things to organize. This is because I switched rooms with him. I have alot of things still in there.
I just want a clean start to the new year and I am making alot of goals that I hope I can achieve.
Most of all I hope that my children have a great 2012!!!

It's a Good Day
Finally got Jonathon better after he has been home with a bad cold and pink eye since last Tuesday. I am happy to say that he was very excited to go back to school to see his friends and his teachers.
Now I just need to keep him healthy for the holidays. This weekend we are celebrating his big brother Kenny's birthday. Kenny is my middle child and I cannot believe he is turning 15.
Jonathon has been working on some Christmas projects for his teachers. We will hopefully get them finished today.

Exciting stuff happening.....
over at an amazing community that I now belong too. A4cwsn has been very very busy over on Facebook. If you have a Facebook account look them up.....check it out...trust me you will not be disappointed.
Gary James is one special person doing unbelievable things and changing the lives of many children. I believe in him 100% and I am proud to be a part of all that is happening!
I have already tried to win an Ipad2 for Jonathon's teacher so she could use it in her classroom. I received minimal support from our school and we did not win the Ipad2 for the class. Jonathon did win an app though. Which was great because it is an app that I could not afford to purchase at this time but had it on my wish list. The app came from http://mobile-educationstore.com/. This has not stopped me. I am going to nominate our school system to win Ipads next. Hopefully the second time around I will get more support. I won't give up because I believe that our children will succeed with the use of an Ipad. I cannot believe how much better Jonathon is talking and starting to form 3 word sentences and we just got our Ipad in October.
Gary started another campaign tonight and amazingly the campaign is still running but we met our goal within the first hour. Phenomenal.........
Over on the right I have added some widgets of some campaigns happening right now. Please help us out and our friends! Even $1.00 will help!
Thank you........
