My son has learning disabilities. School was always very hard. Then our family had several difficult years. Then 2020. He barely passed 7th, 8th, and 9th grades.
Last night we got an email inviting him to be in National Honor Society for his senior year. 1/

I can worry about kidnapping when my anxiety is up. I think because it’s 1) the most horrifying thing we can imagine being done to our kids, and 2) we can pretend to have some control over it: if I just keep them close, watch them all the time, teach them how to be careful…

When my boys were little, I grieved that the closest I had been with them had already happened.
I was wrong. I’m close with my oldest now that he’s a young adult. I love hanging out with him and don’t see his girlfriend as a threat or that he’s “hers” now. I just love them both.

Like I’ve said elsewhere, I started using, “grown ups,” after I had a few students’ parents die in two school years. It was traumatic and awful and I wanted my classroom to be a safer place for them. It took a little time for it to feel natural to me, but it does now.

I can NEVER see or talk about therapy dogs without crying! After one of my daughter’s surgeries, we were having trouble managing her pain, and she just shut down and wouldn’t talk or eat. They brought in this therapy dog and got this tiny smile out of her, then she ate lunch. 💜

My dad was engaged to my stepmom in college, then broke up her for my mom. My parents divorced after 27 years and he married my stepmom.
In a journal he wrote to my kids to read after his death, he wrote about his college years, “I was busy dating both of your grandmothers.”

First you teach them to love the worlds that reading opens up for them. Then you teach them about higher level literacy instruction. Kids aren’t generally still reading DWK at the same age they’d be reading MD. This is pretty straightforward.

I have seen some parents act as though their children have walked away from the family and “the faith” simply for holding different political positions and/or attending a different denomination. When the children still very much want a relationship and are somewhat baffled.

I already reached out to a few of the teachers who loved him during the hard years. They’re so thrilled for him. I’m thankful they believed in him and looked for the good in him.
I told him to plan on me crying straight through from this initiation until graduation in May 2024.

Yes. I had a cerebral aneurysm (suspected) leak that was scary but then went away. We didn’t go to hospital then. The following day, I felt a little off still, so we went to the ER, where I was diagnosed. If I hadn’t gone, I would have likely died at 38 from an aneurysm rupture.
