Adventures in Parenting, Vol. 46
Number One: facing the usual spates of 10 year old harebrainedness. I just had a conversation with his teacher, Ms. N, who informs me that he is having a hard time paying attention to his work from time to time, and that he tends to try the class clown routine with irrelevant and irreverent dry commentary. We are having to remind him to PAY ATTENTION TO WHERE HE IS AND WHAT HE IS DOING.
Little Red: stayed home with a fever today. We have had battle after battle with him over everything from waking up to attending school to putting on his jeans. It makes him sad when he makes us angry, and we try to be reasonable and remind him that he doesn't like the outcome of his stubbornness, but apparently it's not particularly easy to convince him of this.
Lefty: just a few days from turning five! He says he will stop sucking his thumb at that time. We are not convinced.
