After we dropped Kylie off, I was anxious to get home. I wanted to ask Dad the question that had been on my mind for a long time. I knew I couldn’t ask it in front of Belle. So I went to the back patio where he was reading the paper.
“Dad, did Belle fail kindergarten?”
“No, she didn’t fail but she’s behind in some areas.”
“Then why is Mom at school right now? Tell me the truth.”
“Macey, you know as well as anyone that Belle has problems. We were hoping she’d be more mature by now but she isn’t. Mrs. Heldman is giving Mom some suggestions of things we can do to help her be better prepared for 1st grade. That’s all I know at this point. I can tell you don’t believe me. What are you thinking?”
“I’m thinking that you and Mom really don’t know how different Belle is from the other kids in her class. You should have seen her at recess. No one would play with her. She didn’t fit in anywhere. What if she never fits in?”
“Don’t worry, sweetie. We’ll get the help she needs. Things will get better.”
I wondered if Dad really believed that. I didn’t. It wasn’t going to make any difference how many suggestions they had to prepare her for 1st grade. She’d never be ready. I tried to block it out of my mind. It was easier to think about the fun that Kylie and I were going to have during the summer.
