Glad to hear that someone has been in contact with her and that she's well. Say "hi" to her from me sometime, if you think about it.

 

[NotSoLittleMermaid]

And tell her that she's still being quoted on our thread!

Speaking of Facebook, I heard a discussion on TV today of their new policy changes. Here's a NYTimes article about it:

Deborah, I've been having tons of weird, crazy dreams for the last few weeks! I don't know what it's about, but it's wearing me out. I wake up and feel like I've spent the whole night watching a really intense movie!



Maybe so...I'd better not get too confident!




It was www.printfection.com

OH YOU ARE STAR,,, YES THAT ONE WHAT I AM LOOKING FOR...

I will!! It is the first time I have caught her on there. I don't think she posts on her page etc, but i saw her online and said hi in the live chat. I was surprised she responded.

And tell her that she's still being quoted on our thread!

I will indeed.

I think I'll just fax him the info I'm going to fax to the doctor before our next appointment. That will work.

Well, I feel for ya my dear, I truly do. But I'm the last person to give you advice. H ell, my own daughter wont even be my "friend"!

If Brooke and I keep going like this, we won't be friends either

 

[gaylean93]

I'll always be your friend, but you'll have to take a back seat to champagne!!!!

Just to let Bubba and everyone else know, Jon wrote this He had to get on the computer so I told him to tell Bubba that I had to go and this is what he wrote.

 

[gaylean93]

Anytime! I know what happens after the champagne!

I don't so don't tell me

 

[gaylean93]

I see my name, now I must go and look it up!

You couldn't tell from what I wrote???

 

[gaylean93]

I had a stupid dreaming ...

I dream I got upgrade to balcony then I saw sunset and I took my camera, when I open the door and big storm came in.... gulp...

Scottishwee35

That would be a dream I would have

 

[gaylean93]

Yup, that's what I'd do if needed. But Tyler started picking out his outfits and dressing himself when he was 2, so it's never been a problem.

But I buy them and she will wear them for awhile and then say they hurt her. Somethings she says they hurt her right from the start and others after she has worn them 2 or 3 times. I think she wants to wear a dress, without tights, everyday.

 

[gaylean93]

It doesn't look bad on you if her clothes don't match because all parents know that kids want to wear whatever they want and it's not worth the stress. I often let Tyler wear the same outfit if he wants to 3 days in a row. He'll reach a point where he'll know to be embarrassed about wearing the same thing again, so it's no big deal. There are more important things to worry about and if you let them feel they have a bit of power, it will help reduce arguing over all.

Thanks but she wants to wear sundresses when it is 40 outside

 

[gaylean93]

Our twin grandaughters wear some strange combinations and clothes as they choose what they wear themselves.

I have a friend that lets her daughter pick out her own shoes and socks and it works for her. It didn't work for Brooke. She has a little tummy so I know some tight things probably are uncomfortable but how can tights be uncomfortable?

 

[gaylean93]

Molly has always worn her clothes to a beat of a different drummer. It keeps her happy, don't sweat the little stuff

and that boy wears flip flops with his tux too.

OMG I saw the most adorable shorts and hoddie at target I wanted to get for Wilson for the TA, but since it's a year + away I help off, but I might go back and get them. It's not everyday you find good stuff for boys.

Well he can wear them now and if they still fit then he can wear them on the cruise. The other thing is that she puts her PJs on right when she gets home from school. If I don't let her she will put on a "house" skirt and shirt that are old.

NOT a good month for Tyler. It seems his occupational therapist was correct when she told me he’ll have sort of a “honeymoon” period for about the first month before his issues come back full force.

The first week of February, there was a day he was angry about something, and was throwing chairs, so he had to go to the time-out room. He cleaned up the mess when he came out, and repeated 3 or 4 more times.

The following week (last week), he was in the time out room lots of times for something and he punched his aide when she was in there trying to calm him down.

Then today the special ed teacher called me because Tyler thought he’d calm down easier if he talked to me. Apparently he’s been very aggressive and violent today, the worst they’ve seen him at the new school, and he had to be physically restrained multiple times for his own safety and safety of others. At some point in the time out room, he ripped the buttons off his shirt (because there’s nothing else in there, just padded walls and a shatterproof window) in anger and he was crying uncontrollably about the shirt because it’s one of his favorite camo flannel shirts. So that’s when the teacher called me. I reminded him that he has an identical shirt at home.

He’s been doing these things all along, it’s just that they’re building up to the same frequency and intensity as before, so the teachers are a bit shocked. Little do they know, they haven’t seen anything yet. Well, I’m sure they know, it’s their job.

I'm sorry to hear this. It seems like things would get better as he got to know the kids and the teachers

 

[gaylean93]

Thanks V. I'm not sure there's anything they can do to help him turn things around, but just try to cope with him, I don't know. Last week his teacher was telling me about one child who she was happy to see move on after 4th grade.

Every teacher has those kids, don't worry about that. He is going to learn how to behave. I was an aide last week for a kid that was approved for a one-on-one aide. He was a 6th grader and he was approved for this kind of aide when he was little. It was THE most boring job ever because he didn't need it anymore. I didn't do one thing with him. The teacher told me that he used to throw fits and throw things but he hasn't done it for a couple of years.

 

[gaylean93]

Gaylean - girls and clothes can be so frustrating. I've had some arguments with mine. I've learned that if they pick it and it doesn't match, it doesn't matter. Like Nan said, people just assume the kid picked their own clothes. Last week Shaelyn wore the same outfit for 3 days in a row because she really likes it. Last night I told them to pick their clothes out for today. Kaleigh said she wanted to wear the same clothes, but then changed her mind this morning. She was told to pick fast or she's going in her jammies. She wanted to wear a summer dress and I said no. Then she was still going slow, so I went back and told her to pick fast or Mommy's picking and I start counting. If she's not moving by count of 3 she knows I will pick. So you're not alone in the frustration.

It sounds exactly the same. I know other people that have had the same problem, right around the same age. I just wish she would stay with what she picked the night before

A little joke worth sharing.

Cup of Tea

One day my mother was out and my dad was in charge of me.
I was maybe 2 1/2 years old and had just recovered from an accident.
Someone had given me a little 'tea set' as a get-well gift and it was one of my favorite toys.

Daddy was in the living room engrossed in the evening news when I brought Daddy a little cup of 'tea', which was just water.
After several cups of tea and lots of praise for such yummy tea, my Mom came home.

My Dad made her wait in the living room to watch me bring him a cup of tea, because it was 'just the cutest thing!' My Mom waited, and sure enough, here I come down the hall with a cup of tea for Daddy and she watches him drink it up.

Then she says, (as only a mother would know... )

"Did it ever occur to you that the only place she can reach to get water is the toilet? "

Sometimes pantihose are uncomfortable and sometimes the same size from the same multi-pac are not for me :
