It is frustrating. That's exactly what DS7 was doing when he didn't want to go to class anymore. And when I suggested swim classes again this year, he said, "I already know how to swim!" i said he needed to swim better, and he claimed, "I already swim real good!" I said, "Honey, dog-paddling is NOT swimming well."

OMG I know. I said what if I dropped you off a boat in the middle of a lake would you be able to swim to shore safely. His reply "I always wear my life jacket on a boat so yes" :rotfl2:

What could I say to that!? :lmao:

ohhhh before I run off to bed and forget.. N has asked me several time to ask Pixie

"Do you play Diablo II online?"

there I asked it -- mission accomplished.

Sorry! I missed this. I haven't signed my character online (I would have to start over from level 1). I play offline for now. I'm almost to Mephisto. I have a level 22 barbarian. :thumbsup2

Hi, pix! You're back!

I know everytime something goes wrong he runs to mommy. I mean I see what I have done. Geesh I couldnt bring myself to register him for kindergarten til the last minute. I just see I've also done him a little bit of a disservice and I'm worried he will have a hard time adjusting. He's a really physical boy but his feelings get hurt all the time and he will cry or shut down.

You know, I never really understood why my mom treated my younger sister so differently, but I get it (at least a little bit) now. I think we tend to be a little more relaxed (or exhausted?) with subsequent children, and the last one is sort of hard to let grow up. Maybe... no, probably he senses my reluctance for him to grow up. The irony! He's fighting me on the potty-training because he knows I don't really want him to grow up! :rotfl:

It seems like all of the hyena kidlets are growing up too fast! They should stay small forever!

I know I feel so bad because when I talk about the kids I started to see how I do it differently with each. And it also goes along with their size as well as their age. Morgan is huge for her age and Jake is a bit on the puny size. I have exact opposites. :lmao:

So for instance Morgan I'm always talking about how big she is and how she does things that a big girl does etc. Like sometimes I feel like I force her to grow up because she acts so much older. In a way that is sad too. Then with Jake I'll talk about how much he cuddles me and how sweet he was that he came in our bed last night. :confused3

I'm trying to stop with both and watch what I do but its tough to control.

I know. Gosh I already see Morgan behaving like a teenager. She will come back with some little attitude that I have to nip in the bud. :lmao:

I'm thinking "Where does she get this?" :rotfl2:

probably me

And for this very reason is why you need to have babies so we can watch them grow up! :goodvibes

I know. DH is already telling DS7 to "suck it up" or "man up". It annoys the crap outta me! I always said I would never tell my kids they couldn't cry or that he needed to be a man. But DS7 does cry, and loudly, at very minor little things, so we are trying to get him to toughen up a little. If you're seriously injured, then YES, cry at the top of your lungs! But if you have a little scratch, or your brother called you "stupid" again, then there is no reason to wail so the whole world hears you! :sad2:
