I'd finally figured out when to go to WDW this fall/winter. One trip was going to be with just me with my 4yo (we have APs) and another with my 10yo. I was going to bring my 4yo the very end of September since he has a day off from preschool (he will be going to preschool MWF next yrear) and we could then go to MNSSHP. My 10yo had a long weekend scheduled the end of Jan (2 days off of school combined with the weekend= a 4 day weekend) so I was going to bring him then.
Well, our school district just modified our calendar... They took away the day off in early October and one of the January days. It's not a big deal if my 4yo misses an extra day of preschool, but we're planning on meeting my 81yo mother and my sister in Orlando in December and he'll be missing a whole week of school then. I know, it's only preschool...
A bigger issue is my 10yo. He'll be in middle school next year and they really frown on the students missing days of school for vacations.
I know that I will figure it all out again, but I'm frustrated because I thought I had it all figured out so that the kids would miss little if any school.
I could bring my 4yo the middle of October when he does have a Friday off of school. Or I could bring my 10yo in early November since they added an inservice day Nov 1 and they have Nov 2 off for election day, but I don't want to do both of those trips since I want to space it out more for me--those trips would be less than 2 weeks apart.
Any ideas? Sympathy? A kick in the butt telling me not to whine since I will figure it out and am lucky to go this many times in a year?
