The Big Wait!

School is finally out for the summer. My eldest was given what he claims to be as his final grades on the last day of school.

I really can believe this, too, as the teachers really do want the children to know where they stand, since their placement at the school depends upon those grades.

I have posted before that I actually have been having nightmares over getting his report card.

I have dreamed everything from a blank report card to receiving one with someone else's grades printed upon it.

Yep, it's really keeping me up at night! As we have had soo many problems this past year with getting his ADHD medication adjusted and set, there is much for me to worry about.

It's really been a huge struggle for him. His new medication worked wonders overnight for him, or so it seemed.

It was just really difficult to sit and watch him make all A's and B's and then see that his averages just didn't come up all that much even though he did well.

But, we kept our heads and hopes held high, and he managed to stay consistent for the rest of the year.

So why am I still worrying? Well, I suppose it's because I have yet to see it in writing.

It's not that I don't trust my child to relay the information, really. It's that I haven't any way of being certain that the grades he was told are the actual final grades and not just the nine-weeks grades.

So, we sit, and we wait, and I worry and worry! But, I know that it won't be much longer until I will know for certain either way.
