Call me tomorrow and let me know what the lab results are. We have been out of phone range most of the day.

Love,

Mom

Comment on Ex-wives by akentuckycreation

Hubby is a GREAT DAD. Someday the Ex will have to answer for what she had done. I know this is hard for Hubby, but we will prayerfully support him and you also. I pray that the “kids” will someday realize what has happened. Children are very intuitive and I feel that they will “reach out” when they become older. They have missed a wonderful realtionship with their Dad. Love you guys, Mom

Not worth second guessing yourself about something like this. Better safe than sorry, as they say.

Love,

Mom

Yes, and that’s something we struggle with, but I have started giving him smaller portions, but he still tends to eat everything else first before his protein. Think I might have to start just giving him his protein first and when he finishes, he gets the rest.

Sounds like you’re making progress. Grandma’s perogative-be careful about making him eat. I know we did that to you guys some, but he may really be full. You might want to limit his portions (corn) and he can’t have more of something until he eats the other things. Not letting him have anything else is “right on”. Just my $.02 worth. Love, Mom

Comment on Total Transformation by James Lehman by jmshaner

I’m not strong-willed? I’m hard-headed, I guess there is a HUGE difference there. There are so many different things nowadays that are obstacles for parents. In this part of the country, if you spank your child, it’s bad, etc. I get very irritated fast and if I can find something that will help me deal with that and still be an effective rule setter in this house, then I will welcome it. Like you said, have to figure it out while they are young so when they are teenagers, they aren’t out of control.

You are so lucky to have resources to use. We just had to “fly by the seat of our pants” Ha!!. I know we didn’t do everything right, but remember that LOVE covers a lot of mistakes. You guys turned out pretty good. Scoober is a strong willed child and you are not a strong willed person, so there is the problem. Looking forward to seeing you in Oct.

I just recently lost another six pounds. WhaHoo!!! I know it is hard, but I have come to the conclusion that I am worth taking care of and you are too. Happy Birthday my dear daughter. I will call tomorrow. Just remember that you are beautiful.

Mom

Comment on Teaching kids to finish what they start by jmshaner

Well, we struggled with the “forcing” issue and really we just explained it to him that he made a committment to play soccer, and at that time, he only had 6 practices and 3 games left. Well, he went to his practices last week, no problem, actually had fun. He missed the game this past Saturday because he had gotten sick the night before. He’s got practice this week and a game Saturday, and then just one more week.

We are now deciding whether or not to sign him up for track, which he says he wants to do for the summer. It’s a 3 month commitment with track meets. I’m going to call the track coach to see how many track meets and what they do with his age group before I make a decision about it.

If I don’t sign him up, we are going to need to find something for him to do this summer.
