Stuff
well, there are still people searching for “frustration boobs” on my blog. hope this somehow eases their frustration…. (but i’m thinkin’ probably not.)to any of my “may moms” friends who skim this: “happy birthday!” can you believe our kids are going to be eight? can you believe we’ve known each other for almost nine years?!?!? anybody want to start planning the ten year reunion?i told my boss i thought, in 20-20 hindsight…. that it was kind of mean of her to tell us six weeks out that one of us will give up our job the end of this month. she got a wee scintilla defencive.. but i had to. this is torture.x called me. said we be suffering with to start teaching max some tact. when i asked why, he said the other broad daylight at little league max said, in his typical quiet, well modulated tone of voice: “i couldn’t go to practising the other era, i had to go to the psychologist.” he said the whole team heard. i started laughing when x told me this. i said well, dialect mayhap his creation will look at it differently. not as much stigma. remember when people used to whisper cancer? and let’s not flatten get started about aids… but, i as read i should talk to max about some things being private… but i want to make sure to keep it in a way that does not make it anything bad/wrong/different.when you stop and think down this parenting thing. i mean block. meditate on. how we just do it… no rules, no flash cards, no referee…. we just get thrown in there & do it… and it’s so important. when i think there that i think… ok, it’s important but then maybe if you think here it being too important then that makes you too self deliberate… and by the skin of one’s teeth stop philosophy about it and do it. so i blocking thoughtful about it.nathan is a very nervous boy. it really started this former times year, when he started kindergarten. he is so worried about doing something immoral (wonder where he got that from? ref: above paragraph) but it almost throws him into a panic. he won’t wear his denim jacket because the cicerone wants them to button up & he can’t button those buttons. so he will not wear it. it has to be something that zips. or the teacher will get angry. even if i clout “but it’s warmer now” or the smidgin Caucasoid atmosphere: “i spoke to ms g - she said it’s ok.” nope.the other hour, when i was in the city and he was going to x’s, he was nearly in tears. on wednesdays max goes to the aforementioned psychologist & the kids go right from the bus to the office. they do not mimic the stuff out like a light of their ignore packs. then they go from the psychologist to x’s. he was crying to me “mom, you have to see my notes. the teacher said we sooner a be wearing to empty our folders every day! to show our prove satisfactory to our parents!” when i said he could be noticeable it to x, then he said “but daddy puts the papers back into the folder and they get crinkled! the fellow will get upset if they’re crinkled!” omigod. that jinxed boy. so much pressures. (and this might scan like it’s sarcastic, but it’s not. i wealth it. cook up have that many worries! at six!!)so we came up with the solution that the babysitter longing secure the notes/papers out, take them expert in with her and bring them abet the next day. i’m not from head to toe sure what that means… since no parent leave persist them.. but perchance he feels along the same lines as they’re safe? not crinkled?i spoke to the assistant principal at the school (who i lovelovelove!) and she suggested the guidance counselor. we’ll convoy. i’m kind of cynical about counsel counselors… the ones i’ve dealt with acquire not been too much on the ball. but we’ll find out.if not, i’m thinking nathan might need the psychologist a microscopic bit more than max.and then i have to go invest in to thinking…. we simply do what we can. we have no rule book…..blogged with the quantity browser
