Another tough day!

Boy, after just finishing posting last evening that things were going well...today we had such a tough day of meltdowns! Naptime was the usual time, though he probably could have gone down a half hour earlier. I truly hope he wakes up in a better frame of mind.

The boys and I are bummed, as I had to deal with many tantrums today, and we were supposed to go the Aquarium. I knew it just wasn't gonna happen! So, we'll have to try to go next week. Meanwhile it's quiet now... so we'll finish schooling with some tests and then maybe play a few quiet games. They sooo need some fun after our not so fun morning.

Oh Jackie - I am so far behind on blogs and I just read all your posts. Everything sounds so normal even though it's so tough. We went through many of the same things. Lots of time outs, a strong willed child who never spoke at first, but now talks non-stop. Frustration because he couldn't express himself, etc. It all gets better. Some days are still hard, but for the most part, things are evening out. Take the tough days in stride (sounds like you are doing that) and rejoice in the good days!!

Hang in there. He probably doesn't know how to handle so much love and attention.
What a beautiful story of love he has. It will be fun for him to read your blog one day and see all you did for him.
