Parent Teacher Conference

Today was parent teacher conference day. A day I dread. A day I get all worked up, stressed out and super emotional. See I always feel I need to defend my boys. Cause lets face it, they are pretty awesome!! But as a mother, and one who tried her best to keep the attention span going, grades up, homework done, and still have fun I struggle with people telling me what my child is doing wrong.....even if I know what will be said when I walk in the room. So I always get my defenses up, ready to blow up. But I never need to. I'm lucky this year. My boys have awesome teachers!!! Like really awesome teachers!! Both of my boys are having a difficult time with their meds right now. Elijah is almost worked out and we are still working on Ethan's. I was sooooo worried about report cards. the boys have never brought home anything lower than a B. To my relief they kept their grades up!! I'm not sure how but I am so thankful!!!  Do you know what it takes to have ADHD kids with a/b grades?? ALOT!!! Sheeze!! Now on to the next 9 weeks!!
