I suppose everything happens for a reason. I like to make "plans". I like to stick to the plan most of the time. Sure I can be flexible, but I like a plan. Planning for Sophie to have another surgery was a bit a whirl wind. We spoke with her specialist and got things scheduled and in order fairly quick. I made lesson plans for the entire month for my sub. Meal plans for the month etc. Oh and worrying and worrying some more. We have made a big decision for a little person who will some day be an adult. It was not an easy choice to make, and we believe it will be the best thing for Soph in the long run. But the emotional "plan" has been a lot harder this time and Sophie getting sick right before we were to go sent me over the edge for a couple of hours.
BUT.............
Sophie is rescheduled for March 24th. It actually works out better since my time out of school will end just as our spring break starts. So instead of having 4 weeks (including our 5 day hospital stay) at home with Sophie I will have 5 weeks, and that is a good thing.
So it all worked out. Sophie is feeling better and heading back to school on Wednesday. I have accepted that plans change....ok that is a lie. But I have accepted the new plan:) Thanks for all your kind words and support. It is good to know you guys are still out there checking in on us!

Glad to hear you can think of it in a more positive way even though it still sucks :-)
As a fellow teacher, I know how much work it would have been to lesson plan for another teacher to take over for 4 weeks. At least you will have little to prep this next month!
Hoping surgery for Sophie goes well in March.
I'm so glad you're seeing the silver lining in all of this - but of course feel free to whine about it, too. Because it does stink.
Looking forward to seeing you in the spring...since we're looking on the bright side :0)
