Summer begins... Schedule ends:(

Ugh. Mommy you're stupid. Mommy you're not nice. I don't care what you say. That's how I've spent my last 2 night. Every so often I get an apology and an I love you.
I shouldn't take it personally, but it hurts.

Last Baseball Game

Tonight was Jax's last baseball game.  He played wonderful!  Caught grounds, hop step to first base for the out.  It was great to see the big smile on his face, knowing he was playing well and able to be focused!  He hit well too.  

Season is over now.  Baseball season was good for my boy, and my boy was good for baseball.

Sleepover meltdown

Sleepovers are far and few between. It's hard to explain to him that he needs to ask his friend what they want to do, and it's not all about him. Or when we offer the friend the sleeping bag-and there's a 1 minute panic attack-until mom gets the other one.

Thankfully they are side by side, watching the baseball game, chatting away.

Sleep tight my little man. I love you.

China Sharing Day

This afternoon was Jackson's China sharing day in class.  The class put on a wonderful presentation, including a play.  Jackson had a speaking part and did fabulous!  A little fast at first, and then slowed down and said his lines clearly.  Nice job kiddo!  I am proud of you.

It was a good day

This morning was good. Answered 100 questions, and life was smooth sailing. Afternoon was good. Y was fun, playing at home was good, following directions (albeit 100 times to tell to do things) was good, completed all stars on behavior chart....
Big change tonight- Coop and Jax are being split up. For the last 3 weeks have coming out of their room at least 100 times a night. Tonight Jax will be sleeping in the playroom (sleeping bag and books) and Coop in his room.
That would be the last star for today...let's hear it for staying in bed!
Please!

New Doctor

A friend referred a pediatrician who's speciality is kiddos with ADHD and all other fun things under the sun.  Made an appointment for July.  Can't wait!

Oh what a night!

Oral book report a success! I think he will do great when he presents "Dinosaurs Before Dark" in class. Gotta love Magic Treehouse!

Impulsive

How do I explain to the world that he isnt able to control his impulses? Playing statue tag, gets excited with a karate move and wonks friends mouth with his head. Ugh!
Brother is no help - "you did it in purpose!"
Mommy hugs can't fix it. :(.

Done
