[QUOTE="hexemaus2, post: 207299, member: 4560"] Good morning everyone! Wow! It's chilly this morning at 34F. Burr! Sharon - the photo shoot sounds like a great success! I'd give anything to be able to let difficult child 1 & difficult child 2 be in the same room together, much less to do something fun and productive. lol. Wiped - sorry to hear hubby's b/day was a bust. That stinks. Maybe you guys can find a spare second somewhere to do something special to celebrate just the two of you (even if it is a day late.) Rabbit - hope today is better for your difficult child. Meltdowns are no way to spend an evening. House - If I just "be nice," will the teacher give me coupons? :) Linda - hope kt can find some peace within herself today. I can only imagine what she must be going through/feeling. I know this is the worst time of year for you guys. Hopefully, this afternoon will prove to be some help to her. Good luck with the van - hope it's only minor. Wishing - hope you have a pleasant visit/talk with husband's aunt. I know those aren't easy conversations to have. My mother had a time convincing her parents that it was time they moved to assisted living arrangements. They are both gone now, but it was a difficult move/decision for them at the time. They both had a hard time admitting they were "old." (There's getting old, and then there's old...they wanted to stick with just "getting old," rather than admit they were already old & needed help with daily things.) Artana - glad you enjoyed the seminar, hope difficult child likes his snack today. Good luck with the parent teacher conference. Adrianne - try not to work too hard today, but keep thinking about having Friday off if the day starts to drag on too long for you. :) I have nothing on the agenda today but house-type stuff. Some electrical work, some plumbing (hooking up the new sump pump for the basement.) Yesterday was a crazy, run, run, run day, so I'm looking forward to having a slower day today. The good part about yesterday is that Raydin checked out "perfect" with her first visit to the pediatrician. And the meeting with difficult child 2's teachers went very well. They all said how wonderful he is to have in class. He is going to need some services from Spec. Ed, but what we haven't decided yet. Everyone is brain storming ways to help him make friends and improve his social skills for the time being. His Visual Art teacher invited him to join the Art Club (something normally reserved for second year art students.) He's going to the first meeting this afternoon. She bragged on how creative he is and how expressive his artwork is...even asking if he had used art therapy in the past. (Yes, along with a host of other therapies.) Hopefully, he'll enjoy it and feel good about being "privileged" to join a year early. I'm just looking forward to an all "at-home" to-do list today & having an extra hour before difficult child 2 comes home today. [/QUOTE]
