Ahhhhhhhhhhhh- it is Friday Night

Good evening my friends- well you never know what the week will hold with a child who has ADHD and PTSD- we went from wild man on Monday to him making a lovely ornament and candle holder to a semi wild man early Friday morning.

I know this week was related to the last week before vacation for a couple of weeks.

Well I increased his medication and he seems more focused- less agigtated but it has only been 2 days. He had a fun time in school yesterday - they made gingerbread houses - parents were asked to come in and help their child but I could not - we had surgeries from 7:30 until 2 ish and I neede to help cause there were 4 big animals all over 100lbs. One bit my foot all in love - he was not mean or anything just wanted to see how I tasted - he was using my foot as a pacifier. Of course now I have a nice bruise on it- Got love those critters.

I asked Marcus how things went and if other parents were not there- he said they were all there - oh I felt very small then 5 minutes later he said no there were several parents not there. still the life of a single mom can not be in 2 places at one time- if a little more notice would have been given that would have been great - then I could have adjusted my schedule oh well it is done and over.

This morning he was a pistol- we had to call papaw (thanks Papaw) and he got him under control as we were driing to Kids r Kids-- he apologized and said he would be better - He has a few consequences which he is not happy about but hey I made him choose his consequences and I tell him that.

So all the not so good stuff here is what the good stuff is.

I was so exicted to open my first homemade ornament from him and candle holder- This is the first year he has done something like this. It made me smile from ear to ear - you know your a mom when you get one of these- okay I am sure there are other ways to know your a mom but this is my moment.

This is our 3rd Christmas together- the first 2 he had no clue- this year he has a clue- the true meaning and the Santa- yes I do Santa- it is part of growing up - as long as you have the true meaning - We still do Santa with my parents he still signs the package cards - although sometime Santa forgets and then it is a guessing game of what and who it is for. we laugh about it. We watched a couple fo fun movies this season and last week we watched the Nativity- I am not sure if any of you have seen it-for me it was very good and Marcus (even though it might have been too much) he saw it was about baby Jesus.

I will get my gift from Santa tomorrow a new dining room table can not wait- it is counter height and will be able to sit 6 (has a leaf to open)- I have a small table now works great but I fell in love with this -you never know who I might invite over for dinner- hey though feel free to come who ever wants to- but realize I am not a cook so bring something
