See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Go Gracie go with your coming-home-ness!

That thing is a fucking nightmare and he may never get it back.

Unfortunately, that sounds like exactly the right call.

I'm with JZ. Won't be fun, I know.

Is Noah's current daycare going to be Gracie's when it is time for that?

JZ, I skipped acouple hundred posts to recommend Sonoma Syrup Co. No. 8 Pomegranate Natural Grenadine for all your HFCS-free grenadine needs. I'm afraid I can't remember where I got it, but surely it is available somewhere in SF.

Back to reading through this afternoon's conversations....

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

I just read 700 posts of the Zoe thing. Oh man. I was supremely pissed at being called Orwellian.

Oh, Noah, this is going to be an adjustment for you, little man.

No kidding! And he has a whole bunch of adjustments coming (leaving his daycare, going to preschool). He knows Grace is coming home for good and he talks about it, but he has No Idea.

Grace will go to preschool, a special ed classroom. Her IEP has to happen in the next month or so, and the district is going to hate me because I'm already practicing saying, "Let's take this to Due Process then." and "To meet the goals you have specified, you need to provide more services, otherwise, 30 minutes a week of OT will not work."

That thing is a fucking nightmare and he may never get it back.

Ugh. That battle sounds like such a nightmare. I'm so sorry.

Grace? Coming home this May!

How wonderful! Oh, I am so happy to read that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

leaving his daycare, going to preschool

My god, I can't believe he's that big!

What does IEP stand for?

Ugh, my primary headache meds ran out. No more for at least a week. Maybe two.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Oh, wonderful news about Grace!
