Is it Friday yet?

Wonder why some weeks seem ssssssssooooooooooooo long. Didn't even go to school yesterday, which is probably why today seemed so much longer. Grace had an appointment with her pulmonologist yesterday; was a good appointment. Doesn't have to return for 6 months.
Have to say that Grace is blessed with understanding people in her life. She has a sub in math, (her teacher is out with a new baby.) She asked today for some help with concepts she missed last week, and the sub spent time w/ her one-on-one explaining them to her. I thought that was very nice, especially from a substitute.
Her photog/yearbook teacher is always understanding about her absences, he lets her do work from home and has even come up with different work for her to do when she's out for several days. He gives Grace his class time to make up tests or work on assignments from other classes whenever she needs.
Her drama teacher let her have extra time out of class today to work on math assignments she missed last week.
There are many others at her school that bend for her and do more than their share to meet her needs and more.
When Grace was in 8th grade she wasn't too happy about going to this high school, as there is one closer to us but in a different district. I'll have to say she's happy at this school and it would be quite a battle to get her to leave. Guess there's always a lesson to learn when you're placed somewhere you didn't plan to be. :)
