As I sit to write I am so happy this day is finally over. Is it too bad that I hate don’t like my girls homework?
In my defense, Giovanna stays in school for seven hours. She gets home exhausted, and in rare rare occasions homework runs smoothly. It’s like she gives it all during the day and there is nothing left for homework.
Plus, I am not a teacher. Idontknowhowtoteach!
Today, checking Giovi’s grades we found out she got a D- on her last math test. Also her reading and writing are not where they’re supposed to be. I feel like her academic life is like a rollercoaster full of ups and downs, and curves and some bumps on the way.
Bianca’s been receiving support from AIS since last September. So right now I am having both of my girls on Academic Intervention Services. The most ironic of it all is that the school has suggested that Bianca should be tested through the Special Education Services- the one I had unsuccessfully tried so many times for Giovanna.
That reminds me of a song from Alanis Morissette:
“Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you when you think everything’s okay and everything’s going right”
Anytime between now and next week the Special Education Services will contact us about the testing, and we will go from there. Wish us luck!

Covid-19 updates:
Ale and I got tested negative for Covid today. We decided to be tested after finding out Steve got the virus and was already infected during Milena’s birthday party two Saturdays ago. From all of the people who attended the party, we have only heard that Mario Senior has gotten infected so far. We will be praying for his full recovery.
