Jax started his new preschool today! He goes 5 days a week for 3 hrs a day. He loved it. He was so excited and the teacher said he did great! After he got home from school, I asked him what he did at school and he replied, “I ate sand.” Not sure what to say to that.. be he assured me that he didn’t like it and won’t be consuming anymore sand.:) He must have been hungry because at sonic for happy hour his request was: ” a cheese beebo (burger) with no tomatoes, bananas, beans, or yucky yellow sauce, or nunyions or pimples!” He’s too cute!

I am so thankful that a friend talked me into looking into this school… I was so scared after the fiasco with Wylie last year. (If you have a child with special needs… don’t put them in WYLIE ISD -It’s AWFUL!) This has been so nice. The people at this new school have been so caring.. I left the placement meeting almost in tears… good tears this time… because they all seem to genuinely care about Jax having a good experience and getting him included in general ed as much as possible so he’s ready for Kindergarten when he’s old enough.. which will be Fall of 2012 because of his Sept 5th bday.

Jax loves his teacher. Her name is Ms. Sandra. She has been teaching for 37 years (I’m praying she won’t retire for at least a year and a half:0) and has a masters in speech pathology. She is a sweet, hip, grandmotherly type lady that just loves on and hugs Jax when she sees him. She has gotten me a special pass to park in the teachers parking lot and enter the school from the back at anytime without question. Not that I intend to be checking up… it’s just the open access that makes me feel secure. She has made this whole experience great. She calls me from her cell phone to discuss things and I have her number for anything I need. There are 2 aides in his class to help the teacher with Jax and the 6 or so other kids. Right now, Jax will be going into pre-k once a week for library time with his own aide. In the future, hopefully he will do well enough to go in with the prek and kinder class more often.

Jax got a new Batman packpack for school. Every day he brings home his notebook with info about what he did that day and how he handled everything. Yesterday’s report was that he needed a little help playing with others but that he used simple sentences(which is not that common in this class) and he behaved well! So it was a great day!

Well, that’s all I got for now… I’ll soon be putting up pictures of the new pup and Kylie’s bday party..
