She said he's doing well on all of his classwork. He's starting to pay attention more. She thinks as the weeks progress, he might be less distracted. His report card was all B's and 2 C's. The C's were in Art and Music. (HUH?) True, DJ is not big on art...AT ALL! But he loves music. Absolutely loves music. But, I don't care. As long as he passes and he's doing well on the other subjects I'll be happy.
All in all, I'm a happy camper with the report. Now I don't feel too bad for dropping $300 on him for Christmas. I still don't know about all this mainstream stuff. I don't think they'll be able to mainstream him without meds and I'm really not trying to go that route. All the kids in his class are medicated. Luckily DJ is so cute, they ignore the fact he is mega hyper. His teacher actually put bungee cords on his chair so he wouldn't rock out of it.
In school they've been learning about the different holiday traditions. We're sort of catholic:) He comes home the other day and decides we need to start celebrating Hanakkuh (sp?) and Kwanzaa along with Christmas every year. Whatever, little man. If that's what you want, that's what you'll get. I did tell him though to only expect presents at Christmas. The other holidays we're just going to celebrate spiritually. No gift giving. Momma's wallet can't take the hit! This weekend I'm going out to pick up the Kwanzaa candles and stuff because we have to start celebrating that on the 26th.
Looks like Dec 2005 is going to be a little busy for me:) I think he's just looking for an excuse to party.
