[QUOTE="DDD, post: 316141, member: 35"] How wonderful to hear from you again. It seems like years since I read an update on you and Nate. You have worked so hard and are reaping the rewards. :happy: I still remember when you (and your Mom??) drove Nat to the State fair to enter his plant. I was so impressed by your creativity and remember picturing the darling exhausted little difficult child sound assleep on the way home. If I recall he was clutching a ribbon. Regarding chores I strongly agree that since he has made such progress and is at the beginning of his volatile teens, let him choose what he would like to learn. Then move slowly forward. It has been my experience is raising eight teens that it is easy for Moms to expect more from their kids when they get "taller than Mom". In actuality the taller they get at that stage...often the more turmoil they feel within and the more they need the stability of home. I'm happy for you. How are your sister's kids doing...or should I ask. Hugs. DDD [/QUOTE]
