Confusion and frustration

Sean has been on a waffle kick lately and wanting waffles every time I turn around. He has his own special waffles that are, of course, wheat and egg free, but he ran out of them this week. Yesterday he wanted a waffle, so he helped himself to an Eggo waffle!! He even ate it frozen! He only ate a quarter of it before I discovered he was eating it. I quickly took it away from him and wondered if we were going to be as lucky as we were with the donut holes. Well we were! No reaction what so ever!! I am still cautious about it and plan on keeping him off of wheat and eggs until we see the allergist in September. Wouldn't it be nice if this meant the end of his food allergies! Of course he hasn't had any apples to see if he reacts to them.

Yesterday Hannah went to be certified to participate in Pop Warner. They would not certify her because they didn't accept her homeschool report card. Instead, they require homeschoolers to sign a form that states they did not meet the 2.0 GPA requirement. They also require her to turn in a progress report stating she has improved her grades. I refuse to sign that form because she DID meet the requirement. I called the headquarters and talked to a very rude man and asked him how a homeschooler is to show they have improved their grades. He told me that I would just write a note saying she is now passing! I asked why couldn't I just do that from the get-go. He told me because they have no idea if my child really did pass! That just doesn't even make sense to me.

I am really wrestling with what to do next. She has a second chance to be certified on Saturday. My options are: pull her out and be out the money (since she already has her uniform), sign the form as is (I will NOT do that, so it really isn't an option for me), or cross out the parts of the form I don't agree with, state she HAS met the requirements and that she was homeschooled last year and then sign it. I am leaning towards the last option and if they don't accept it then it just wasn't meant to be. I am so proud of Hannah because she is handling it so well. She understands why I will not sign the form and agrees we shouldn't sign our names to something that isn't true. Of course she is sad that she might not get to cheer this season, but she is handling it with amazing grace.

So there I stand......confused and frustrated!
