This week I have kept pretty busy. On top of taking care of the puppies and Jetta (all which are doing great now), I have been busy with scout stuff, extra kids, and school stuff for my own kids.
I'm still struggling over where to place Jinelle next year. I really wanted her to have Ms. Carr, the same Kindergarten teacher as the other three, but that would mean splitting schools. I LOVE Cypress and am excited about all my kids have done over there. (I would change a few things, but for the most part, I am loving the new school) BUT Ms. Carr is like the ultimate teacher, and she is at our old school. She has all the good qualities and none of the bad. She is perfect. But what I struggle with is, if I put Jinelle at the other school, I would have to drop the kids off at the bus, and take Jinelle. Anyone who knows me knows I don't do good with just dropping my kids. Jinelle WILL NOT ride the bus in Kinder, so I have to take her and pick her up daily. But two schools, that is just a lot of driving. Plus, our school is changing start times next year, so it will be the same, or close to the same, as the other old school, which makes dropping off even harder. (I like to walk my kids in, especially in kindergarten. And most of the time, Ms. Carr would have a little project for me to stay and do with the kids in the morning.) But, if I put her at the old school, and move her in first grade, all the other kids will know eachother, and she will be the outsider coming in. I know its just one year, but Aiden has his same best friend from Kindergarten. I would hate to have her make great friends this year, just to have me yank her up and change schools the next year.
So, I guess I need to do some research and figure out what I want to do. I am hoping that tomorrow when I go to the school, I can drop in to the kinder teachers and possibly a few third grade teachers to see if maybe I can make my mind up. Luckily, Aiden and Noah's teachers are already decided for next year. Just now to deal with the girls......
WISH ME LUCK! I need it!!! (Yes, I am obsessed with my kids having the perfect teacher. I have had a few bad experiences when someone else picked my kids teacher or when I picked blindly......so, I need to research and decide for myself)

Awww Jillie Bean... I was hoping she'd get Ms Carr too - she's fantastic but whatever you decide I am sure is best for your kids and family. If you happen to see her - tell her we said hello!
