Back to school…

The kids went back to school on Wednesday.

Kiahna refused to get out of the van on Wednesday.  And on Thursday.

Today she got out in the car pool lane without a fit.  Good news!

Her behaviors continue to be a huge concern. 

Put her back on the medication she was on before the last one we tried.  She seems to be just as angry off the medication as she is on it.  At least on the medication she is calmer & less impulsive.  We will see how long this lasts.

Her neurologist no longer takes our insurance.  Found that out yesterday.

Taking her to her new therapist today.  She doesn’t take our insurance either.

A week from today we are meeting at school to go over her IEP.  The special ed teacher admitted to me today that Kiahna is the first diagnosed FAS child she has worked with.

UHG.

DEAR GOD…. HELP!!!!

James went back to college on Wednesday too.  It was really nice to have him home.  It went well.  He’s maturing a lot and I am really proud of him.

Track meets start up for him next weekend.  We will try to get to some of them, many of them are hours away from here. 

Zach is 16 & 180 days today.  Officially old enough to take his drivers test & get his license. 

This could be good or bad.  We will see won’t we. 

(repeat above prayer here)

Leah’s birthday is Monday.  She will be 14.  She is planning a party for next weekend.  Wants to have boys and girls. 

shudder.

pray above prayer again.

I purchased a family membership to the new wellness center about 5 miles from our house. 

I’ve walked/ran 10 miles this week.  Swam some laps too.  Mentally I can see a big improvement in myself.  Physically, my body is screaming some things I can’t repeat on this family blog. 

It will be good for us all.

Better diet.  More exercise.  Good things.
