When we postponed our trip in July (because we got the boat) I really thought we'd have to wait until next summer to go because we didn't think Matthew would be able to miss school. But he has been doing so much better than we expected this year and he's worked really hard. He had to have each of his teachers sign off on the permission form for him to be excused and none of them had a problem with it. He'll be missing three days!
I CAN'T WAIT!
