Mikayla's First Week at her new school

Mikayla started her first week at her new school this week.  I had a meeting with her teacher today and she is doing very well.  Her teachers are impressed with her.  She has completed two weeks worth of assignments in just one week.  I told her if she keeps it up, she may have all her work done in March!  I asked Mikayla if she likes her new school and she said "yes." I said do you like it because you don't have to go to school everyday.  She said "I actually wish I could come here more."  That was good to hear.  I went back and forth for a couple of months before making this decision.  I wasn't real sure how it would all work out and if it was the right thing for her; but I am glad we chose to do it.  We no longer have to worry about insane amounts of homework and assignments she doesn't understand because she wasn't taught the material at school.  Her new teachers are very friendly and helpful and actually take the time to teach her and help her with her assignments.
