It has been yet another long week. I cant wait until Spring Break, I'm exhausted. My history class is giving me the blues but I'm not giving up. I have a Criminal Justice test Monday that I haven't really had a chance to study for but I'm going to get to it as soon as i get free from the kids. I agreed to keep my brother's kids tonight and I have been nonstop trying to cater to all their needs, including my child who has the only-child syndrome. She is one spoiled little girl.
I see my nephew is making more developmental progress. He's crawling instead of scooting now, when he recognizes a familiar song he claps, he is alot more active and not as reserved as he once was. He will be 2 in July; hopefully by then, we'll see even more progress. He still hasn't been seen by the geneticist but it's soon. I'm praying it's just hypotonia and he can overcome it through his weekly therapy he's receiving now.
My oldest nephew is death in his right ear but is extremely smart. He went through speech therapy his kindergarten and first grade years of school. He's now in the second grade and looking forward to be a third grader next year. He says he wants to be a third grade teacher one day. I told him that's awesome if he could just leave the girls alone for now. He thinks he's a "ladies man." Today we were on our way to Walmart and he informed he was "in love" LOL Gotta love the kids!!
Hi Natalie! Your blog this week made me laugh!...you are so funny!! I am the only girl with 3 brothers and I know I am spoiled! However, sometimes spoiled kids turn out fine! I have to admire a second grade young man who is "in love!" He must have a compassionate nature and a spirit for life! I really love reading your blogs!

Natalie,
ReplyDeleteYou sound like you have a sweet little family. And your oldest nephew reminds me of my younger cousin with his "ladies man" character. :) They are so funny, aren't they?!
Sounds like you had a ball. I have two daughters and I must say that both of them are spoiled brats. The oldest is 21 and the youngest is 5 and I have a time with the both of them. I enjoyed reading your blog.
ReplyDeleteNatalie, I totally feel you on the exhaustion thing! I am SO looking forward to spring break!!! I am glad your nephew is making such progress! You know, with early intervention, kids can come so far with therapy! We are WORLDS away from where we started with my son - he has come so far very quickly. Kids are so resiliant and they soak up everything like big sponges! :)
ReplyDeleteEveryone who's ready for spring break, raise your hand--both of mine are metaphorically up in the air!
