snow snow snow

Mom says "OK kids because of the snow we have no school today"

Mapboy says "whoo hooo can I play the wii"

Messy says " no I wanna go to school.... can I have my crayons?"

Moo "but I want to sing songs"


So I let the boy have his Wii
I give the girl her crayons and paper
and I sing some songs with the little one

HAHA Am I the best mother ever????


ROFL
actually the boy out in the snow
the girl is drawing
and the little one is watching "Jacks big Music Show"

I have a surprise I have been saving for them
someone gave me some kidnex sets
maybe we can have all three doing the same activity at the same time???

I just found out my niece is going to have a baby and I am SOOO SOO happy for her

The Clarinet???

That is the advice we got from the psychologist

get him a band instrument and get him some lessons and get him into a band

he asked me if I ever saw "Music Man"

said something about 76 trombones and keeping kids out of pool halls, I think he was disappointed that I didn't know the reference *shrug* now I need to rent it LOL
so we should have got the kid a clarinet instead of a guitar.

what he means is that the boy needs to find a niche, something that gives him a feeling of belonging, and fitting in, and since he loves music and piano, he may love a band instrument and get into a school band and fit in.

he also wants the boy to have a neuropsychological assessment

hehe how much ya wanna bet that isn't covered on the insurance? LOL

he talked a lot about the dad/son relationship how much the kid adores his dad and wants to do things with him...that was kind of weird, he was talking about them building a go kart together or getting an old car or something to refurbish...I felt like I was transported to the Brady bunch for a second LOL



moo had a great day at school

we are supposed to get snow tomorrow

I hope there is no school, because I do not want to drive them LOL

hope you are doing well

I haven't really been keeping up and reading my favorite blogs lately :(

catching up

I've been so busy I forgot to blog LOL

lets update :)

Mapboy is doing the same we are still trying to find out what the right thing to do is for him
boy if I were wealthy I would pay a tutor to help him with his homework, and organization *sigh*

Messy is doing GREAT! I went to her Parent teacher meeting and got the scoop on how well she is doing, of course while I was there I most certainly heart her pitching a fit in the hallway *sigh*
right now they are dealing with the kindergarten switch, her class was morning kindergarten, and afternoon special needs class....now it's switched and that is hard for kids with Autism, but she is doing pretty good :) we are waiting for results of her test to see if her lamictal (seizure medication) levels are good and we can start testing to see if the medication is helping her speech, which will mean it is controlling the seizures. I feel like DR house (not really)

Moo is doing awesome lol she is 70 percentile in weight and 20 % in height so she is short and fat LOL must take after mom LOL

Moo is now a preschooler, she started school on Monday and Had a blast, although she got cold feet when I went to drop her off this morning, literally since she has taken her boots and socks off in hopes of not being taken in LOL I don't think she was really scared of school, she just didn't know the woman who was taking her in...she just needs to meet all the helpers and she will be fine I am sure :)


Me? I'm Ok just trying to rework the budget to include the cost of preschool sheesh LOL



I'd like to say a prayer for a friend...I know you have heard it a million times, but really READ the words (((hugs)))

God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.

Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.
