Hope is the thing that is willing to take a chance on the future. Hope is the capacity to see something on the horizon that we are willing to move toward. If our hope gets us from today to tomorrow, and in that new day we are ready or able to deal with something we thought we couldn’t face, then hope has done its job. There is a worse thing than false hope. It is no hope.
One week into school and Eric's daily assessment for today:
I had a Stormin' Day!!!
Comments: cleaning up and noisy in line.
Received a WARNING
When I asked Eric about his warning, his response: "well, it's better than what Emma got".
Thank you for riding along with us on our journey.

A Stormin' Day? I'd hate to hear what comes next- A Tornado? Hurricane? Hopefully we won't find out. ;0)
Good call btw on the k/1 split thing- as a former Kinder teacher I'd never go for that either. It's just like the schools to not meet the needs on the other end of the special needs sprectrum.
Good job advocating (when you are a lawyer and a sn mom the school district better watch out!) ;)
I'm glad Eric has you as his mom. And I am glad you have him. :)

I'm one of those ghost readers that never comments. I stumbled upon your blog a while back, and check back daily (but have been out of towna and am catching up.) I just have to say you are an amazingly strong woman, and I feel like I know your family...kind of. Oh, and Eric - I swear he cracks me up. Reminds me of my teaching days...
