New School

 

New school, new teacher, new friends! Did I mention that we now have a child that loves to go to school. Well, that is not 100% accurate. Zander is a home body and never wants to leave the house. But, he loves his new school. He has a new best friend named Zander E. They get into much trouble together every day. His new teacher is kind and understanding with Zander's issues. I makes the biggest difference in my day when I can leave him happy and go to work without either being mad or crying. Thank you new school- you know who you are!!!

Zanderism

I really intended in doing a better job of writing down some of the funny things that Zander says, but it seems that life always gets in the way. I remembered last night while I was talking to mom that I forgot to write my favorite one down. I can't remember another time that he mispronounced something. Ever since he started talking he just always said words correctly, so I found this very funny. I always ask Zander what he played with at school when he gets in the car. About a month ago this is what he said:
Mom- What did you play with today?
Zander- Math (mumble)
Mom- What did you say?
Zander- I said Math my nipple pigs
Mom- What????
Zander- I SAID- MATH MY NIPPLE PIGS!!!!

Well after I stopped laughing I realized he was trying to say math manipulatives. He worked on it for a couple of days and now he can say it perfectly. Yesterday he told me that he was going to be better than I could ever imagine at school. He also told me that I was the most beautiful special mom ever. They can just melt your heart.
