Moving......

We are prepping to move and will be moving in 2 weeks.  Princess, Fairy and Bumble Bee are not handling it well. 

Princess is crying and hurting people and just an emotional mess.

Fairy has started to use her hands and feet in anger and refuse to do time outs.

Bumble Bee is doing the worst by far because she knows that she will no longer see us all the time.  Her and her Mommy are staying put.  She is really sad and clinging to me. 

So todays class lesson will be for everyone.  We are going to talk about thier fears and make charts.  We are going to discuss the good things and the bad.  They are going to make pro and con lists and we will discuss how we can help the con list to not be so bad.  It should be a productive day.

Belated Mothers Day

I am such a lucky Mommy. 

I was blessed  a little over 7 years ago with a beautiful baby girl.  She is now 7 and working at so many levels.  Socially she is in kindergarten, Emotionally she is 7.  In reading she is working on 4th or 5th grade work.  In math she is working on 3rd grade work.  We are so very lucky to have such a beautiful little girls.

The following year we were blessed with our amazing Fairy.  She is socially light years ahead.  She makes friends everywhere she goes.  She is working at a first grade level most of the way around.  She is such a sweet child.

 

Fairy

 

Two years after we were blessed with Fairy we were lucky enough to have our one and only boy.  He is such a very sweet boy.  He loves to give hugs and kisses, and cuddle.  He loves cars and trains and giving me gray hairs.

 

 

 

Buddy

 

Our youngest was born 3 years ago.  She is such a very sweet baby and the only Mommy's girl I have.  She loves to color and play like she is doing school work.  I am so very happy that she loves school and hope she continues to love school.  She is a joy and a blessing.

 

 

Baby Girl

 

We have been extremely blessed to have these children and as a mother I could not be prouder or more blessed.  My children are all healthy and happy.  They are all smart and well rounded.  They are not perfect but they are mine.  I would not change them for anything in this world.
