Last Day at Co-op..Boo Hoo!

I want let this blog get me crying again. Rich and I decided on Tuesday that Chase's last day at Co-op would be this Thursday. This didn't come as a quick decision, but one we have been talking and thinking about for a couple of weeks. I just hope it's the best decision for Chase. Unfortunately, Co-op is enduring some pain right now and I think the added stress is tough for our family. We are a family who loves to be involved and commit 100%, but in this situation we would be doing more commitment than we have been the past 2 years, along with other families, to get Co-op back to where it should be. We just don't have the time or energy to do that right now. It breaks my heart so bad. We have carefully selected another school for Chase and pray that he will adjust well. He will begin there the first full week in July. I thought it would be best if he were home with me for the next 2 weeks to put some of his Co-op memories in the back of his head. (I hope---I swear he has an elephant brain for memory recalls). He will slowly go to this new school the last week of June (1 hour or so with me) for transitions. I think this was one of the single hardest decisions I have ever made for Chase and I just hope its the right one. Only time will tell.

Today I took his class the Elmo cupcakes.....the enjoyed them! Everyone ate Elmo's eyes and nose, except for Chase :)
