FAQ'S about Joshy.

OK first off the most FAQ:  He will be having another surgery, most likely in January. We will find out for sure when it will be in July. Dr. Patel wanted another eye exam to determine how soon it will need to be done which definitely will need to be done just don't know how soon. It will entail 3 parts: 1- Removing the current sling 2- Taking muscle and tissue from his more developed upper thigh (so basically whichever one looks better to the Dr.) and 3- making a sling with the muscle and tissue and putting in place of the current silicon sling. And no the muscle has to come from his leg not mine or Gary's. So next, if you have been following my blog (allaboutgaryandnessa.blogspot.com) you would know that we have been getting him ready for school and i was not happy about a lot of the things with that school. Pro: It is close Cons: Basically anything and everything you can think of! From the name (South Kearns EWWWWWWWWW!!) to the fact that its year round! and it starts at 815 am so on garys on weeks he wouldn't be home in time to walk or drive him to school. Some of you might think that that shouldn't matter but Gary is a very hands on there for josh all the time kind of father and he promised Joshy he would always take him to school everyday no matter what and when Gary makes a promise he sticks to it. And it is all day, no more half day kindergarten they ended that last year! Well I have some good news!! I went to the school I thought was his to enroll him because they start enrollment in January and it wasn't South Kearns! It is oquirrh hills and its like a gazillion times better! We always walk there to play in the summer but their sign was under construction so i never knew the name and then we found a GIGANTIC park not much further so we stopped going anyway it is traditional not year round so he will start just a couple days before he turns 5 not a month before like the other one! and the have morning kindergarten that starts at 9:05! Perfect gary and joshy can have breakfast together and walk to school! everyday! (thats how close it is) And on early days he gets to come home at 11! The other school didn't give kindergartners early days even though the rest of the grades got one! And the start registration in march so i'll be able to update from the day he starts until the last day and everything in between then. I'm feeling better about him going since i like the school so much better. and the stagger the lunches so that makes me feel better about not having the older grades pick on the little ones. Joshy is definitely excited! He didn't want to leave! (tear) So things are looking better! also i lost another pound! Maybe stressing is good for my waist? So happy news there.

Okay. I learned so much. So I guess Joshy has that thing with his eye where it doesn't have the muscles? Our BFFs in Spokane have a daughter with that. She is 11 now and totally adorable.

Okay, South Kearns (ewww) Elementary sounds like it came straight from Louisiana. (NOT a compliment!) THANK GOODNESS Joshy can go to the good school! I was totally unprepared for Matthew to have all day kindergarten and it about broke my heart!

Starting with the name, the hours and the lunch rules, it sounds PERFECT! I am so excited for you and Gary and Joshy!
