Day two of school is over and we’re holding strong with straight A’s! YAY! I just had to say that, because it’s probably the only time in my boys school lives that I can proclaim that.

So far they both like all their teachers, except Justin has one (pre-algebra) that speaks with such a heavy Indian accent that he can’t understand her :( That’s not cool. I told him that as time goes on in her class, it should get easier, as he gets use to her voice.

I was reading over all the class syllabuses tonight and most of them were very good, with a lot of great information in them, except one. The teacher stated that we could email her at anytime, yet she didn’t put her email anywhere on the paper. Ai Yi Yi! I’ll be calling the school in the morning, pointing this error out, and getting the address from the office.

When I was a freshman in college I had a professor who was Dutch and it was really hard to understand him. Add to that his need to tape all his classes on a karaoke machine and it was even worse. But as time went on I got used to the accent and started just getting into the material. (His handwriting was atrocious as well, so taking notes from the board was hard too.)

Congrats to your star pupils!! Hehe!

Kayley’s Spanish teacher is brand new - I think the one she was scheduled to have quit unexpectedly, because now they have this new lady. She barely speaks English! I hope Kayley figures her out.

I love the way you think, Julie. I have had the exact same thought about Ethan. He’s a smart kid. He just “forgets” to turn things in, or fluffs off his homework. We are treating this year like being on a diet. One. Day. At. A. Time. I’m not going to belittle him for his bad actions and choices last year and the year before. He had worked on his homework every night, gotten things done early. Now. If I can just get him to write down in a notebook, during each class, what homework he has that night (or its due next week….) — maybe we can get passed this “well, lets see. First hour, we …., Second hour, we…”… and he is mentally walking through his day — at the end of the day — to figure out IF he has homework.

We will survive, though, Julie! And so will they:)
