Calvin is now 13 years old. He has had a rocky school year, but I am hopeful that things will only improve from here. Back in November, Calvin told me that he was being bullied at school. After I mentioned it to Tyler, the thought immediately came to me that I should homeschool Calvin. I was floored - as that wasn’t even on my radar. I voiced this thought to Tyler and he said that he was thinking the same thing. When Calvin came home, I told him about my conversation earlier and Calvin told me that he has the same impression as we did. The last day of school before Christmas break, I withdrew him from school. I purchased some school workbooks and have been contemplating which program to use with Calvin, but so far nothing feels right. I know that God will help me find the right one for Calvin.
So for now, he is home and also in therapy - which he loves! In fact, he has been markedly more happy since he was withdrawn from school. It’s amazing.
The day before Calvin’s birthday, I took him out for lunch. We had a great time chatting. Calvin wanted a footlong meatball sandwich - which he was able to finish! You can probably guess the Harry Potter theme. He had a great day. Love this boy!
