[QUOTE="artana, post: 207689, member: 6186"] Good morning all! WO - Sorry to hear about the pain.:( KJS - four day weekends rock! I hope you have a great time with your difficult child tiredmommy - I too hate car troubles, but at least it's fixed right. Here's crossing my fingers for a good day for you. Jennifer - Good luck on the job hunt! Marg - It's awesome about difficult child doing more work. That's a great start. And difficult child 2 and the circus work sounds interesting. I think I might have missed the history for that. Yesterday I had a parent teacher conference with difficult child's teacher. She said she might create a safe corner for him and solicit his input about what he wants in it. But, she's concerned about having him get out of it again. I told her to use a timer and to have a long conversation with him about how it's going to be used. He's good if he knows what to expect. She also said that one of her biggest frustrations with him is that she sees all his potential, but can't be one-on-one with him all the time. So she wants him to take a little more independent initiative. He, on the other hand, is the type of kid who always wants reassurance and to show you what he's done. Not sure how to help her there, but I see what she wants to do. The first thing is to get his nose out of a book.:) Also had a tech focus group meeting with the school last night. A lot of work there, and some of it translates to the school's grant writing committee meeting tonight.:/ I've been away from home all evenings this week. But, at least it's not every week. WFEN!! You snuck up on me. Sorry to hear about your morning. Hopefully it will ease up during the day. [/QUOTE]
