Arthur's first week on campus

In order to save $380 per week, I dropped Arthur off and have him stay on campus.

His dad somehow picked him up earlier than usual. He took him home, then went to do yard work. Arthur just watched pokeman.

Tuesday is a banked day. Student was released at 1:30. Arhur went to a free bible afterschool until 3, then go to auditorium to practice flute. He ends up asked me a lot of questions about what is God, is he alive and so on. I have to tell him about budda. I am not a faithful buddist, but have to tell him all about it so he won't become a stubborn christian.

On Wednesday, it was rainning heavily. It is so hard to convince myself not to pick him up from his school. there is a shelter, there are a lot of other kids, he got to get used to this kind of life, grow up.....It turned out that I was worried too much. At the time when my husband picked him up, all kids are in a big room watching TV.

On Thursday, he went to luklele class and somehow finished part of the homework.

I am pretty happy with his first week. He is asking me to pick him up later today, which is a good sign.
