How do I know that J…


How do I know that Jonah loves school?

He would rather wait on the sidewalk for however long (hours if necessary), than watch for the bus from our nice cozy living room…

…because being outside is closer to school.

The biggest compliment I can give Jonah’s teachers is that he loves to go to school.

It wasn’t always like that.

When Jonah was in preschool, I remember driving both boys to school while they were having dual meltdowns.

Jonny, ever the ‘rule-follower,’ did not want to be late and was anxious about it.

Jonah did not want to go to preschool and refused to get dressed.

So I picked some clothes out and threw everyone in the car.

I drove two crying kids to school. One was not only NOT buckled in, he didn’t have a stitch of clothing on him.

😳

Today (5 years later), Jonah was dressed and ready to go, half-an-hour before the bus came.

It’s like that every day.

If school is delayed for inclement weather, Jonah would rather wait outside in the cold for 2 hours than risk missing the bus.

Because he now loves school that much.

Thank you to those fantastic teachers and everyone who has been involved in Jonah’s education.

He has come so far!
