school

i'd only been out here in kc for a few days before i realized that 2 weeks was not going to be long enough. if a short visit was all that was needed, it might have been. but there were some things that i needed to work on, and some things that needed to be done; and putting such a short time limit on them was just not reasonable.

that being said, i made the decision to put the kids into school while we were here. it was honestly the easiest decision i made.

as i hadn't brought any kind of documentation with me, it was going to be a little tricky. we decided to utilize the homelessness act. it gave me some time to be able to get birth certificates and shot records. it also meant that they kids could start while we were waiting for the documents to arrive.

getting the documents was fairly simple. i had them all in one place, and shaun just had to put them in the mail. turns out ashley still needs her kindergarten booster shots, so we'll be figuring that out.

taylor will be in the 7th grade at the junior high.
elizabeth will be in the 6th grade at the elementary.
shannon will be in 2nd grade.
ashley will be in kindergarten, she's not emotionally or socially ready for 1st grade.
   AND it's all day!
michael we are going to try and get into the head start.
