Part 2

I have a confession to make! I believe that there is someone out there trying to make me look really bad. After I wrote my blog and promised that it would never happen again, it did!
:( I promise I got there earlier, but not as early as the bus! (stop it mom) I feel really bad, I really do!
Let's move on to why Velani got moved to another table. I still can't believe that she told Jahvel and not me! I always ask her what she did in school and I don't get much out of her. She always says she did the same things as the day before like color, play outside and sing. Anyways, Jahvel asked her if they moved her so she could get to know other little classmates better and she said no that it was because she was talking! Great, we have a talker, but then again I already knew that. Velani loves to talk and always has since the day she learned how to do it!
She didn't go to school yesterday because she was a little sick. She had a fever and a sore throat. It got really chilly all of a sudden. I think the climate change really affected her because no one else here got sick, at least not yet. This morning her voice was a little scratchy and I asked her if she was ready to go back to school, but she said she wasn't and didn't want to get anybody else sick. I was going to let her stay until later she comes up to me and tells me that she is feeling a lot better. I asked her if she wanted to go to school and she said yes! I think that she realized she was going to get bored here and that she would probably be better off in school with her friends. I have noticed my days are actually less stressful when she is in school; there isn't a lot of yelling or screaming or fighting and that feels good. I'm not saying that it's Velani's fault because it's not, but since she is the only one that is school age then, it works out for me and my sensitive nerves!
Moving on, on Saturday we had the chance to finally go out again and have fun. We went with some friends to Valley Forge and had a good time. We had the opportunity to be in the same place where Washington and the continental army once gathered during the revolutionary war and we took pictures of the different sites. It was such a good feeling to know that we were standing in a very important historical place AND we went on the 224th signing anniversary of the Constitution of the USA. It was also a special day for members of our church, the groundbreaking for a Temple here in Pennsylvania. It was a good day!
Next weekend will also be a good one. It is Jahvel's 29th birthday, our engagement day and Velani's diabetes diagnosis! We will be celebrating that day, especially Velani, she will be sticking it to the man, aka "DIABETES", by eating some yummy ice cream! We won't let that bring us down. Celiac...that's a different story!
