I'm so happy to check in and be part of this community! We went to our diva GFG's parent-teacher conference - always an experience - and this time, GFG was taking notes as to what she could do better! This is my child???? Got to say, the ADHD dx and the meds seem to be making a HUGE difference in her self-esteem. Although her grades are a big problem, the teacher said she had NO social problems (this was the girl who couldn't stop chattering in/disrupting class for the past 7 years!). I'm utterly flabbergasted and relieved. We're getting the IEP soon too, so that will help give her support in the classroom.

GFG2 comes home this evening. He got a mild concussion at school, which puts him out of football - and we are ALL (including him) relieved. My partner is gearing up for the weekly battles, but I feel that because I'm able to come here, I have back-up - so I can be HER back-up as she comes into understanding more about what's going on with him.

Happy Wednesday, all!
