When Life Gives You Lemons..........

Today we have an interview with a new school for my final child........

We started interviewing schools for high school for my final child because she is in the 7th grade this year.  Our local public high school is not an option for her.

However, because of some recent events that have transpired at her current middle school, we have decided that maybe it's a good time to consider next year for the transition.......

It's been a tough year for my final child, academically and socially.  My boys sailed through middle school unscathed........my final child, perhaps because she is a girl?, ........well, lets just say that there hasn't been much wind so far.......in fact, the seas have been pretty flat........however, it's not because of lack of effort.......My baby girl has worked incredibly hard and made the absolute best of it......We are so proud of her!

So, through many prayerful days, some sleepless nights and school interviews, we think its time to move on.......We are not sure where or in what capacity but we are sure it's the right thing......

My daughter will go with us today for her first interview with a prospective school.........

She came home in a great mood and said, "I can't wait for my interview today!  I can't wait to meet them!"..............

Why is this so surprising, you say?

If you knew my precious baby girl, you would know how much she suffers from anxiety......especially when it involves a new environment and people she has never met before........Sometimes the unknown can overwhelm her to the point of a huge meltdown.......

This is one of the many "God shots" or affirmations that tell my heart we are on the right path and that God is with us............

Lemon Sorbet, anyone?
