WHERE: Downtown WHEN: Friday, June 19th WHO: Noah + open
Noah stopped earlier by the school to have a meeting with Autumn’s teacher and had come to a conclusion after talking to the only involved part—Autumn herself, that she wouldn’t be skipping a grade next school year. Instead, he’d always send her to summer camps of her choice and add some extra-curricular activities that entertained and helped her grow. Both cases, she was the one making a choice on the classes to take and the camps to go—it only had to fit the budget.
“You see, that’s why I’m trying to find an extra job. Horse training pays well, but not as well to maintain all the extra that Autumn needs.” Parenting a kid that was an Advanced Learner all on his own wasn’t always easy, but Noah was willing to make all the sacrifices for her. “I train the horses from four am to about seven, then after I get her ready for school, I’m back until midday, and I’m done for the day. I could take something in the afternoon, and Autumn’s grandparents or my parents can pick her at school until I’m off at whichever hour. It’ll be a bit of a routine change, but as long as there’s a structure, I know Autumn doesn’t mind.”
