So a few weeks ago my daughter comes to me, when her dad is nowhere close to hear, and asks me "What do you do when you like someone and they don't like you?" Yea I wanted to cry for my girl! She tells me about the boy and the girl he is trying to talk to. I tell her about Matthew, how I liked in jr. high and how he liked my friend and not me. I let her do more talking to save me from having to give out "lame" advice. Hard to believe I have a 13 y/o on my doorstep. I will need to schedule a girl's day very soon. One of her friends has gotten her period....I pray things hold off until the summer.
My son is such a character. He had taken to calling boys, his friends and girls, his girl. If he wants something from you he adds the word "best" in front. He is just too much! My husband is really needs to tighten the reigns a little bit. I've noticed a level of disobedience that has the potential of getting out of hand in a bad way. I might have to schedule a mommy-son date very soon, because I want us to start kindergarten this fall on a good note and not me getting notes home.

I think you broke my nose...
It was back to school for the kids after a really wonderful and relaxing holiday. I still have a few days (kinda) to myself before I officially hit the books again.
My daughter seems to have made a tentative peace with her hair. We've been using some Gro-Treatment on it so help encourage the really short areas to catch up with the rest of her hair. I hope I can make an appointment for her to have it professionally wrapped and then we can maintain it...I'm just not a hairstylist even though I do know some things and can follow directions really good.
My son has be a bit concerned...not in too serious a way but still I am on high alert. This week I was putting him to bed and when I do storytime I like to give each character a different voice. Seems he didn't care for it and head butted me in the nose. He didn't (thank God) break my nose but there was some cartilage movement. My nose has been sore and I'm getting minor scabs (oh joy). Anyway I know his hanging around with older boys is what is influencing his more aggressive behavior and since he doesn't realize his strength he is hurting us who aren't ready for him. My headaches are better but I'm watching if I have to do a lot of swallowing and if I taste any blood. I gave him a stern talking to and I hope this is the last of any injuries for any of us for a long, long while.
