BACK TO SCHOOL TODAY

WELL THE KIDS WENT BACK TO SCHOOL TODAY AND ORIGINALLY THE BUS DRIVER TOLD MY NEICES THAT THEY WOULD BE PICK UP AT 6:15 WHICH MEANT SHE WOULD BE HERE AT 6:20. SO I GOT MY BUTT UP NICE AND EARLY AND HAD JORDAN DOWN THERE AT THE GIVEN TIME. WELL NEEDLESS TO SAY I AM GLAD I TOOK HER DOWN IN THE CAR BECAUSE THE BUS DID NOT ARRIVE UNTIL 6:35. OH AND JUST WHEN WE THINK THAT THIS WILL BE THE TIME ,SHE WILL PROBABLY BE HERE 5 MIN EARLIER TOMORROW AND TAKE OFF WITHOUT HER. I HAVE TWO EXTRA KIDS THAT GET OFF OF THE BUS HERE UNTIL THEIR MOMS GET HOME. JORDAN SAID THAT HER FIRST DAY WAS GOOD BUT I REALLY THINK THAT SHE JUST MEANT THE SOCIAL ASPECT OF IT BECAUSE NOT 5MIN AFTER HER AND NATALIE GOT HERE THEY WERE ON THE PHONE WITH FRIENDS. I SIT DOWN THIS MORNING AND WROTE OUT A SCHEDULE OF THINGS THAT I WOULD LIKE TO GO ON AROUND HERE. YOU SEE WE SENT JORDAN TO PRESCHOOL WHEN SHE WAS LITTLE AND IT HELPED HER A LOT. HER AND I HAVE ALWAYS KINDA BUTTED HEADS AND IT IS HARD FOR ME TO TEACH HER THE SLIGHTEST THINGS. EVEN NOW , SOMETIMES I WILL WAIT UNTIL HER DAD GETS HOME TO EXPLAIN A PROBLEM TO HER IN A WAY THAT I CANT SEEM TO MAKE HER UNDERSTAND. BUT RILEY IS WAY DIFFERENT AND I DECIDED THAT WE CAN WORK ON TEACHING HER SOME OF THE STUFF JORDAN LEARNED IN PRESCHOOL. WE STARTED TODAY AND WE BREAK THINGS UP WORKING ABOUT 30MIN AT A TIME AND ONLY 15MIN ON ONE THING. AFTER ALL SHE JUST TURNED 4 AND HER ATTENTION SPAN IS NIL. SHE TOLD THE KIDS TODAY WHEN THEY GOT HOME THAT SHE IS BEING HOMESCHOOLED. I REALLY HOPE SHE KEEPS THAT FRAME OF MIND AND THINGS WORK OUT THIS YEAR THEN MAYBE I WILL HOMESCHOOL HER AND JORDAN BOTH NEXT YEAR. NEXT YEAR JORDAN WILL BE IN THE 6TH GRADE AND WILL BE IN JR HIGH. AM I WRONG IN THINKING THAT THIS IS TO YOUNG. IT SCARES ME TO BECAUSE JORDAN IS ONLY 11 NOW AND PEOPLE THINK THAT SHE IS 14. I KNOW I CANT STOP THEM FROM GROWING UP BUT MAYBE I CAN SLOW THE PROCESS.
PS I KNOW YOU WILL BE READING THIS TOMORROW AND IT JUST TURNED MIDNIGHT SO IT IS TECHNICALLY TODAY----HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY SISTER VICKI!--I LOVE YOU AND I WILL SEE YOU ON SATURDAY AT JORDANS SOCCER GAME.
