Striving for Good Behavior
I arrived and I could hear them all talking and my stomach sank- honest feeling here- I was like already they have decided without my input what am I going to do they are ganging up on me- ok so a little paranoid I was it goes back to the past- but I got my wits about me- said God please help me to be calm and peaceful. Help me not to have anxiety cause I feel it building- I waited for about 15 minutes before they called me in- then the school psychologist hit Marcus on the head ( with how he saw him not literally cause he was not there). then I begin to relax and said wow they know already how he is. He said Marcus learned this behavior and it is going to take sometime to unlearn it my heart did a little dance. Yes they see it- Mr Rendizio (forgive the spelling if I get it wrong) said that we have a positive thing going is that he is very smart- he gets that from me you know :) so this may be a good thing. Here is the plan for the next 10 days of school they are bringing in Mr Law a behavior specialist to be in Marcus' class to observe to intervene to see if this is a workable situation. In 10 days we should know what the next step is. All in the room were very optimistic with a we will see.
I will inform Marcus of what is to take place.
I told him them of Marcus history - somewhat - they knew part of it because of Mr Larson and I speaking even before school starting. I told him how far he has come and I know what he is capable of. The fact is he does not have that trust with them yet..
SO thank you for your prayers
Grannie and Pa paw thank you for watching him- I know it may have difficult at times and I appreciate it. At least it was better then the summer time. :)
We have come so far- and still have so far to go- keep on persisting good choices and changing his outlook- we will accomplish the task that was set before us.
God- I thank you for the wonderful people who have crossed our paths- through email, through friendships, through high school , through our family, through our church family they have encouraged me, uplifted me and been there. Bless them today and everyday for the love they have for us. For Marcus and I are truly blessed to have each of them in our lives to be with us.
In your name I pray amen.
I met with the principal, the school psycologist, the ESE program director for Pasco County, the guidance counselor, and his teacher yesterday-

From the way it sounds, you have a positive team on Marcus' side and not against him! That is the best scenario - YEA! We'll continue to pray that all goes well with this new plan of action. I am sure the behavioralist will help greatly!
But we know the power of God is stronger than anything and He will help Marcus even more!
