To start off here is a summary of how my last couple of days have gone. Last night I pulled a 12 hour shift at work, had to drive 30 minuets to another town to deal with the fact that my son’s Aunt is pregnant. I got home at 1AM to let the babysitter leave. Andrew got up at 5 this morning. Needless to say I didn’t get a lot of sleep. Lucky for me, today was my half day at work so I got off at 2 instead of 7. I walked in the door, set my purse down, and my phone went off. On the caller ID? Andrew’s school. Turns out that today my son decided to 1) Headbutt his student teacher in the face and 2) Use a pair of scissors to cut another student. Needless to say, I had to go pick him up. He then decided to spend the next hour and a half lying to me, refusing to tell me the truth about his day at school. Eventually he fessed up. So now, he has lost his TV, and his Four-Wheeler. He is spending the rest of the day in his room going through his toys and anything still on the floor when its time for dinner is going in the trash. I called his other Mom and filled her in and we are both at a loss. He is in therapy trying to work out some issues. Not surprising considering how his first few years of life went. In a nutshell, he bounced around from my house, his grandparents house, and his other moms. I finally got my paperwork that I needed to keep him with me about a year and a half ago. He turns 6 this month. Some days I just really don’t know what to do. Here’s to hoping tomorrow will be better…
