Does winter have to come?
It's cold today... but nothing compared to lastnight. I'm not sure what the temps were but hey it's Minnesota so that's really all ya need to know. I bundled the boys up this morning for school.. scarves and hats. I'm gonna have to buy them new gloves again.. it seem like they get new gloves every year and still by the middle of winter they have no idea where they go. I think there must be some kind of black hole or hungry monster or something. Seems to favor tupperware lids, library books, socks...but only one, and winter gloves.
We're in the 3rd & 2nd grade this year with the older two boys. (Tristen & Zach) It's tough, we have our good days and our bad days like everyone else. Tristen is ADHD, and it makes having successful days a little more work, but he's doing well and improving. Zach, is ADD and so far we're doing great too... just needs reminders to stay focused, and breaks now and then so that he doesn't get frustrated. He has a tendency towards anxiety, he just wants everything to be perfect. Little does my sweet boy know, he IS perfect.
Darian my youngest son, is a kindergartener this year. He just turned 6 the end of October. He loves school and has his most favorite cousin in the same class, which of course makes it all the better.
My babygirl (Ali) turned 3 at the end of the summer, and some people are telling me that I should put her into Headstart (preschool), but I just can't. I love spending time with her she is my pride and joy. Of course, don't get me wrong my kids are my life. A girl.. my only girl... somehow it's just different. I don't love her more... I just love her differently. Anyone with both boys and girls will know just what I'm talking about.
Today, the big boys had already left for school, and Darian was asking me if he could play with some playdough he had gotten for his birthday. I've been telling him no for so long now, because of the mess I'd been trying to avoid, but I told him that if they were good after school, I'd let them play with it. Well, Ali asked him," Can I too Darian"? and he told her, "No, it's mine". Little bully... and she pouted, so I told her baby don't worry about it, mama will make you your own, any color you want...and we can put sparkles in it... and even make it smell pretty! .... and we did. It was pink, ( her fav color) with sparkles, and smelled like lavander. She told me she loved it so much and kissed it, and started singing a song about mama said it's only for me...and not the boys....! hehe... I love that kid. :)
