Not to mention...

Why???

 I have pulled Mikia out of public school, for what I believe will be a better educational experience for her here at home. The reason we made the decision to do this is because of the severely strict attendance policy here. And the fact that winter is coming on and she tends to get sick ALOT during the season. Also, I have seen some of the ways and attitudes the school had towards learning and I am not impressed. Derek and I have taken to teaching her and letting her learn thru life experience. And so far, it is working out great. She really looks forward to the time we spend together talking and doing "assignments".

We haven't pulled the others out just yet. I am leaving the decision to be here up to the older to. So, far they both want to stay in public school. Tyler is still struggling with his speech and I want to make sure he gets the best help possible for it. And right now that's also public school. Plus, he doesn't want to stay home either. He likes his school and the friends he has made. :)
