Too Much
I think Sarah is involved with way to much this year. She joined chorus, got elected to student counsel, taking 3 dance classes, and autioning for The Snow Queen on Sunday. Last week, a girl in her class, called and asked her to join Girl Scouts. They talked on the phone for a long, long time. Sarah who has a hard time making and keeping friends, this call was the longest ever she's been on the phone. So, tonight I let Sarah go to a scout meeting to try it, but I'm just not crazy about letting her contiue. Doesn't it seem like she already has too much on her plate? She's only 9. Since Pat works all kinds of weird hours, I would have to add this to my already busy schedule. What do you think?

well, Snow Queen is only once every couple of weeks or even once a week for rehearsal. And how much after school time could student council take in 4th grade? At our school it's all at lunch time. I say if she can keep up with her homework, which doesn't seem too challenging, and keeps her grades up and you're able to do it all, why not? Make a deal with her, if her grades start to fall, something goes.
Well, we'll try it, she already has to miss an outting on Saturday, I already have to sell SOR ticket's with Joseph and she can't go to the meeting nexy Tuesday because Joseph has his court of honor and it's a family thing, not that I could just leave that to go pick her up either. I guess I'll try to let her go whenever possible.
