June 16 2011

Since last I post we adopted the little girl we now have. Her new name for this blog will be fairy fluff. It is a flower just like the other girl names I picked out. The males in my blog are tree names. I am close to graduating now, just one semester to go. I will love it when all that is behind me. Homeschooling is getting tougher. Having three children in school this fall is going to be rough. My oldest son Dove has started on ADD meds. We will be getting him tested soon too. We think he has asbergers, it is a form of autism. Having a special needs child is really a hard thing; although he is a great kid. Dove and Elm do not get along that well. I have to constantly seperate them.

We have foster twin girls. They came into care March the 13 of 2011. They are trying to work the plan so they can go live with either their dad or their mom. We will see what happens. When the do go home we are getting out of foster care. It is way too much on me.

A lot has happened in the last few years way to much to post about it all. In most ways it is normal day to day life type of stuff though. No one that I know of reads this blog so I guess it doesn't matter if I post. Hence the non posting that has happened.

Today is my second daughter's Birthday. She is 27 years old. Happy Birthday!!! Hope your day is filled with joy and hope for the future!

Vent......
The boys are still loving Time 4 learning. My husband and I on the other hand feel we got done wrong twice in one summer by them. If we find something else by next year we will switch. We called and asked and it seemed like they were helping us, but in the end it cost us $80. It really isn't that much money, but a program that is teaching children should not be so shady. What happened to the customer is always right? The lady that answered the phone at the place said she took care of it and we believed her. Guess you should always keep your guard up and not trust anyone. I did check the web site to see if she took care of it, but my husband told me it would take a few days for the change to take effect. My husband and I had both called her for help and she fooled us both. I will never recommend this program to anyone else that is for sure. Another thing they did was to charge our account for the next month with out asking. We thought it was pay as you go each month, but the money came out without them asking. Each time they did something to us we just rolled with the punches thinking it must have been an oversight on our part. I had recommended the program to our daughter and she had joined too. She is also trying to find something else to replace it. We both use school books and other methods to home school. We never had problems like this with click on reading or IXL. Oh well live and learn.

Getting this off my chest did make me feel better. :)
