[QUOTE="Running_for_the_shelter, post: 5330, member: 2960"] Hello! Yes, I'm alive and well. Sister has left (much sadness on all parts) so now I can get at the computer in the morning again. Except this morning, which feels just like a Monday so I didn't want to get out of bed. difficult child cried the first day but has since decided he likes this school. Except when he's asking to go back to his other one. Sigh. Asks why he's not going there. Over and over. We're now down to just saying, "Behavior" since explanations about whacking people weren't going too far. He has a pal who seems very nice and lives in the neighborhood. Guess what? He's a difficult child, too! The mom seemed very excited about the recommendation for The Explosive Child. Recommended a local (free) parenting class to us. Well, these cubs are everywhere, huh? Sister was here supporting husband during the easy child break (boy, was easy child a PITA the whole time) so this is husband's first week all on his own as a SAHD. I'll send him the link even though we're (thankfully) past the diaper and formula stage. I set up a bin system with different kinds of work for difficult child to do in the afternoon with husband. I can't imagine that he is actually going to learn much in Kindergarten so I figure we need to supplement his education in the afternoon. A casual sort of thing -- finish one item from each color of bin (there are four) and you can play video games for a while. Yeah, that'll motivate him. He's so good at Mario Kart now, it's scary. Anyway, I have to dash. Thanks for checking up on me. I'll be able to get back into the posting groove again now that we're back on a schedule. Hope all is going well with you! [/QUOTE]
