Open House

Open house was tonight and it went well. As we were explaining the list of S's issues that we had to squeeze into 30 minutes, the teacher and aide looked a little overwhelmed. There are only 7 children in the class with a teacher and an aide. After our meeting, S came in and met her teachers. She greeted each with a gentle hug, and they seemed thrilled. She answered their questions and was very charming and sweet. I think all of their fears disappeared after meeting her. I'm really happy they got a good first impression. the best news I heard all night was when I asked if she were the only special needs child in the classroom and they said there was not one child in the entire school that wasn't special needs. Hallelujiah! I can only hope that she is the best behaved in the class and not the worst. My biggest worry was that the fumes from the paint and new materials was so strong that it gave me a headache. I hope it doesn't last long and that they air it out. Tomorrow is the first day and I am debating sending her at 9 when the reat of the kids arrive or start her at 9:45 when we planned. A lot of prayer is needed right now.
