This Week

Aug 2009

So, this morning My Sister told me that she thinks my playing Mafia Wars is interfering with my Blog Posting. So, I pulled out my M16 and shot her.

Only in the game, of course.

Really, this week has just been swamped! I have lots of new kids starting, which I am so grateful for! I have been working all week on figuring out how I am going to be able to get Zane to school, back from school and to gymnastics and back from gymnastics while I have all the other kids with me. I ended up having to take less kids than I am actually licensed for and I had to let 2 kids go since the times they were here did not work out. I feel like there is a Mini-Van in my future. This is not a good feeling.

Zane is simply loving First Grade. However, he did already have a situation that he is dealing with. He shares a table with one of his good friends that we LOVE. However, this good friend is very talkative, and surprisingly, Zane is very serious in class. Yesterday he told me that the teacher had to tell his friend to stop talking a couple times, and one of the times she included Zane in the request. Zane is having none of that. He HATES getting in trouble, and he told me he does not want the teacher to think it is him talking when it is not. So last night he decided that he was going to tell the teacher he wanted to be moved. Well, he must of spent last night really thinking about it, because this morning he decided he was going to give his friend one more chance. If his friend was talking, he was going to ask him to please stop because it was very distracting. Zane said if his friend would not listen, he was going to talk to his teacher at Snack Recess about moving desks. I thought this was a very grown-up decision Zane made and I was very proud of him.

I made the rookie mistake of eating a Chimichanga from a Taco Truck and seriously regretted that choice. My stomach is finally starting to forgive me. I, however, will never forgive Ian for picking a Taco Truck for his birthday dinner. Is that a dig at my cooking skills?
