2 September, FRIDAY

We went to an open house for the boys at their school yesterday. We got to meet the teachers and see the classroom. We went to Elee's room first and it was set up pretty nice with a reading area. Then we went to Josiah's class on the second floor. I asked Josiah's teacher how things were going the first week. She said good but that he talks a lot when she's talking. I told her it's good that she has him sitting up front then.

After listening to her talk I can see why he's talking. Is that bad to say? Hahaha. I walked in the class to find her with a headpiece microphone on and I was like, "what in the world?" Apparently, there is a reason for it though. There's a hearing impaired child in the class so that's great they have those tools for the child. She has been teaching for 21 years, and to be nice, is really slow in her talking. After leaving the class, a light went off in my head. I really think Josiah gets bored!! And am reminded of my dad's story, how he was really smart and had trouble paying attention in class. Josiah is so smart and needs to be challenged! So on top of him having a slow talking teacher, OMGooooodness! However, we told him he needs to listen and not talk while the teachers talking of course. :)

The kids were up at 6am this morning. Are you kidding me??? Then Pace and Luna were up at 6:30. GREAT! The boys have a half day today. Then our friends come over while Richie brews a batch of beer tonight. YAY!
