Joshwa’s School Celebration

Posted on

Every year I try to celebrate Joshwa’s birthday in school. It’s not big and not grand we just bring food and cake that we can share with his classmates. In a way its a form of thanksgiving and a chance to give back in our own small way. I look forward to this because this gives me a chance to get to know some of his classmates.

Joshwa belongs to a class of 6 boys 3 are being mainstreamed and 3 are not and Joshwa is one of those that are not being mainstreamed. I am so proud of Joshwa’s improvement he is now more verbal and is starting to express his wants and needs.

.I really found a new form of respect for Joshwa’s teacher here I am ready to pull my hair and I only have one and she has to deal with a lot of kids. I really wish that she stays on next year I really would like to thank her for being such a great teacher to Joshwa. I felt a bit sad when she told me that Joshwa is not ready to be mainstreamed. I wanted him to but deep in my heart I know that it’s going to be a very difficult transition for him.

Joshwa was really so happy he even told me Mommy, Picture!!!

 


Happy 11th Birthday Joshwa

I can’t believe it Joshwa is 11. Where does the time go? really where did it go? My baby is now officially a Tween. So many changes so many new things that he is discovering and so many changes to look forward.  He is starting to be verbal and we are so glad that he has found his voice and he knows how to use it. Literally and figuratively because Joshwa can sing and Philbert hopes that he can teach Joshwa to play the guitar. I think Philbert needs an excuse to look at a bb king lucille guitar . No matter what you do Joshwa we will always be proud of you. We will always be here to support you and guide you.


We’re Back

We’re back from our quick vacation.. We really had a great time!! We went to different places and saw new faces. Met up with family and friends and really enjoyed the time that we spent with my parents and my sister and her family. We bought different items for the kids and  I was even lucky to see a clothing sale so I bought shirts for the kids.  Much to the relief of my husband who was paying for all the items that we were purchasing.

It felt good to be able to buy something that wasn’t as expensive I know I’ll feel that way when I buy an affordable item from The White Company.

We definitely enjoyed The Pearl Farm. Everything was superb, the food, the service and the location too. Of course it was very pricey too. Much love and thanks to my parents for sponsoring this really great vacation.
