So shortly before Christmas Scott and I decided to start sending Boston to the preschool/daycare here in Bondurant, Kids Academy. My mom and dad were very sad. We had planned on having him finish out his "school year" at Meredith Drive Preschool and then move him but we changed our minds. He started there on January 6th and has been doing so well! Made new friends quickly and seems to really enjoy going. The first day he was perfectly fine when I dropped him off, it was awesome! I thought, 'man, this kid adjusts well!'....but then the second day came along and it was a different story. He screeeaaaaaammmeeddd and cried and I felt horrible and didn't want to leave him but knew he'd be ok eventually. I promised myself to not be one of those parents that checks on their kids every day so I didn't call or anything but thought about it all day. Turns out he was just fine after about 5 minutes of crying. It was like the that rest of the week pretty much but since then he's been perfectly fine.
He's completely obsessed with Ninja Turtles. Which makes me perfectly happy because I love them too! :)
He's now counted to 100 (with help on what comes after ***-nine), but once he knows its thirty, or forty, or fifty he gets the rest done himself. He had trouble with 13,14,15,16 but has got it down now.
It was exactly one year March 6th since Jon has seen him. As some of you had seen on my Facebook, I no longer hate him, he is essentially dead to me. I have found out about things he's done and the trouble he's gotten into through his ex-wife. Two OWI's, a public intox and probably other things I don't wanna know about. He doesn't even have a car (because he couldn't afford it) so the OWI's are a mystery to me, and I feel sorry for whomever's car he was driving. He obviously has developed a drinking problem. None of what has happened to him do I feel sorry for him about. Period.
That little boy amazes me every day. I could just sit and WATCH him play and learn and think forever.
There's more....but I've lost my attention span...until next time...
