Frustration

Sometimes Lauren's memory issues are more frustrating then Brandon's language issues. Case in point. Last Monday, Lauren had "Chapter 2 Test" written in her agenda book. I asked (like any mother would) what subject the test was in. It seemed a logical question. She couldn't remember. Go Figure. She had just copied it from the board and didn't pay any attention to what it said. I asked her to find out. The next day I saw that she had again written "Chapter 2 Test" in her agenda book, so I asked if she had figured out what subject yet. The answer was of course "I forgot". So I wrote a note in her agenda book asking the teacher (who initials the book every day) what subject it was. No response. The next morning I e-mailed both teachers, even though I knew only one teacher would know what I was talking about. I received an e-mail from the one teacher that the subject was Social Studies. GREAT. So I ask Lauren that night "What are you studying in Social Studies". You guessed it. "I can't remember". So I ask her to bring it home so we can study over the weekend. You see by this time we have lost a week in study time and the test is on Tuesday. So, of course, she brought home Science. So I e-mailed the teacher to remind Lauren to put the Social Studies in her book bag and let me know what to study. The teacher e-mailed me that she had to know the words highlighted in the book and she had already had Lauren put the book in her bag. So tonight we have to study and hope it's enough for her to get a good grade.
