Ok, I need to vent before bed or I'll toss and turn all night. I still might, but oh well. This afternoon I said something to my son out of frustration--something along the lines of not allowing him to go to Disney if he doesn't buckle down, write all of his homework down, and bring his supplies home. I said this in front of my husband, and now he is running with it. He is worried about what the teacher will say when I tell her we are taking the kids out for five days, and thinks she might hold DS back because of it (she can't). I spent all night on my touring plan, working right in front of DH. When I offer to show him the
Disney Store package we got today, he says, "Well, that's if Q can go." I say"oh, he's going! We're fully paid!" DH tells me I am being stubborn :yes:, and that "it's only money." ONLY MONEY! It's thousands of dollars. If I have to homeschool the kid myself (which I have considered numerous times), WE ARE GOING! Ugh. Me and my big mouth. This is what makes me wish the trip was done with already. Or at least get my "talk with the teacher" over with already so we can quit worrying about it. My neighbor told me that her friend got a
Disney Cruise approved as an educational trip by our principal, so maybe I should talk to her first. I'm so over this stress.
(In case you're wondering why I chose school time to go: we've been promising our DD for 3 years that we'd take her to WDW for her 7th birthday. Her birthday is Dec. 9th. Also, my husband and FIL do not do well in crowds, so Christmas break would be paralyzing for them)
