Needing a Donkey Hug

Seamus successfully competed day two at his new school.  We are working through transitioning him from the French language school board to the French immersion program at our local English language public school. He is adapting to his new adventure like a trooper and we have hope that the changes we are making will position him for success with some added dashes of self-confidence, pride, and happiness thrown in. We are so proud of Seamus even if these past few weeks have been beyond stressful for all of us. I guess it was just our time as parents to learn that what you want to be best for your child is not necessarily what actually is best for your child. A difficult life lesson to be sure but at least Ian and I can confirm that we are now both more emotionally intelligent people. Good grief.

I certainly could have used a
good Charlie hug this week.
