More discouragement, but also good news.

First the kind of bad news. I talked to the school psychologist a little bit ago. She said they changed the special education laws in August of this year, and they no longer look at the discrepancy between IQ and performance to diagnose a learning disability (therefore the test results from Dr. McClurg are not acceptable). She is sending me the consent form to complete so she can test him. I am so stinking frustrated. My biggest concern is that he will have trouble passing the essay portion of the GQE and not be able to graduate. I don't know what else to do. Matt said maybe we should talk to a lawyer. I thought schools would want every student to work to their potential.

Now, for the better news. We almost have the insurance issue settled. Steve and Amanda have to redo their taxes to take Rett off and we will redo ours, adding him. It is going to cost us, but not as much as it would have been to pay back the medical bills. Also, Matt tested and passed the written and agility tests for Frankfort Fire Department.

I feel like I don't have much to post about since band is over. Rett decided he is going to do pep band, so Matt is happy he'll have an excuse to go to the basketball games. Hazen was so funny yesterday. We were shopping in Walmart. He was riding in the cart and he looked at me and said "Mommy, you're a cutie". Oh, and one more thing. I can't believe I almost forgot to say Hazen is 99% potty trained!!!!!! He is wearing big boy pants all the time he is awake. He told us he would do it when he turned 4, so we told him that the diapers were GONE and if he peed or pooped in his pants HE was going to clean it up. He had to rinse out poopy pants one time and that was enough.
