	Last day in class Today is Nicks last day of pre K special ed. So I’m going today bc they are having a little show and some snacks. He is so exited bc he gets to sing. I fear that he may have a melt down once it is over, bc he has had the same teacher for 2 years and LOVES her so. But he will be in a new school next year. I’m bummed bc I couldn’t find our video camera but My digital takes like 6 min videos. John39241.2718981481We are having a last day here as well. It is so bittersweet. Thanks for reminding me to bring a camera. I swear I would forget my head these days John, I hope it goes well.  I have the same feeling of leaving teachers behind, and Adam is much older.  It is very hard to move on, especially when you see something that is working well. I will be thinking of you today.  You may be surprised John. Ds had his last day on Wednesday and at first, didn't even want to give his teachers a hug. Then, when he saw all the other kids doing it - he did, too. I think sometimes the emotions can be so overwhelming that our kids just don't do anything and almost shut down. We see the effects afterward unfortunately. We did take some time and processed the day at bedtime and I think that helped. He was then able to vocalize how much he would miss his teacher. But, your little boy may not express his emotions at the time - you never know! I think for a lot of our kids, it's hard to actually understand the whole "last time" concept. We've had a significant amount of "last times" these last few months as we also moved an hour and a half away 2 weeks ago! So, perhaps ds is getting a little more used to "last times" but he was still saying he would see his teacher again when he was an adult. That seemed to make him feel better and so I told him that was always a possibility, but it also might not happen... I hope he did well..I want to see the vid:)
