E17: I was so optimistic and naive

Confession: Rereading my blog entries about Lane’s adoption day makes me a bit sad.  I was so optimistic and naive.  I never would have imagined ending up where we are now.  I share two blog entries written right before and immediately after Lane's adoption day in addition to more horror stories of Lane's Kindergarten teacher.  

Included in this episode:

*blog entry written on 7/11/12: Tomorrow we stand before a judge

*mandated reporter<his Kinder teacher failed to follow protocol

*the spring parent/teacher conference

*equity= providing each child what s/he needs to succeed

*Lane's loss of recess privileges for 2 weeks and its impact on his behavior in the afternoons

*blog entry written on 7/21/12: Final adoption decree
