Dear Josh's Mommy,
You know how whenever I'm over (thank you again for inviting me over so often, especially to all the parties you throw - they are awesome and we all appreciate that you always send me home with leftovers) and Josh goes into the kitchen to get us a snack, you always come into his room and talk with me and when you're leaving you always say if I ever want to talk to come find you.
I'd like to take you up on that. Hopefully this is not one of those empty promises grownups make to kids in order to make themselves feel and look good.
Will you come to school with me please? Not mine, Al's. Because I don't know how to have a meeting with her teacher about her skipping into 7th grade. This is just like totally out of my abilities. I need a grownup. One who knows how to know when teachers are lying and who knows what the right questions to ask are. This is totally over my head and it feels like too big of a decision to screw up.
Thank you.
Love,
Sam

I was trying desperately to figure out who you could ask. That's a terrific idea. I hope she is good to her word. She seems like the kind of lady who would do it. Best of luck.
Sam, good for you. I hope she is able to help you out. She also knows your sister which will help in the decision making. Keep us posted.
You are so fucking awesome grrrl. :P
Just ask. She'd be honored I'm sure.
Again, I'm pleased that you let your guard down enough to ask her. It's a risk. A well conceived one, I believe. Let us know how it goes.
I hope she lives up to her word, how brave of you to put yourself out there for it, good luck to all!
