Morning Friends……..
YESTERDAY –
School for Tommy was not very good. He was scared by all the new kids. There wasn’t one child from his class last year. He clung to me that I couldn’t even get him to stand on the floor. He cried “I want my mommy”, “I’m scared” so I stayed in the classroom with him for an hour. He than got interested in a toy and began playing with a friend, so I slipped out. Hubby said he was fine when he came to pick him up. I hope it goes better on Thursday. That boy is so attached to me and I am not sure what to do with it. I want him to be over the seaparation anxiety by time for kindergarten. He is left at daycare and does fine now…..he just wants his Mommy. 
I got to all my errands yesterday. I stopped at the bank and bought Erik’s mouth wash for him. I went to meet a new client but they weren’t home, forgot I was coming. ARGH. So I worked on some paperwork at the office until around 7:00.
Then I came home and was so happy to see 7 boys playing in our front yard with Erik. It is nice to see him playing with friends again and having fun! Then I straightened out Erik’s Planner with him. He had started writing on the wrong days, etc. We also talked to him about how he wants things to go at school. We are having his IEP today and I wanted his input about if he wants to be pulled out or how he wants assistance. I hope we can find a way to respect his wishes. But I told him I can’t say for sure but will try.
Since I had gotten home late, than it was time to go to bed with Tommy. He told me all about school and his new friend. I hope Thursday goes well! Josh was at work and came home after I was already in bed.
I forgot to mention someone stole our White Bear out of our front yard. Bummer. We have had it there for 8 years almost with no one touching it. YOu might ask, why a white bear?? Well I live in White Bear Lake…so everyone has a white bear. 
TODAY
I have an early meeting at work, than I am getting off early to go to Erik’s IEP meeting at school. Then make the world’s fastesst supper and go to confirmation orientation at church at 6:15. Whew! It is a busy week for us. The entire month of September is crazy. There will be only one week where I can actually get in 40 hours a week at work, unless I give in and work from home some on the weekends, which I hate to do as that is family time!
TOMORROW
Let’s see what is on our agenda for tomorrow……
Tommy to preschool in the morning. Then I will go to work until about 5:00. Once home I go to the Chiropractor and then to Erik’s Open House at School.
SUPPER – Hmmm…going to have to be something quick…looks like a hamburger helper night!
GRATITUDE – Diet Mt Dew…..a little caffiene keeps me going. Couldn’t live without it unfortunately!
Your such a great mom! Sorry about the bear
! Have a great evening. Jenn
Aww, I hope Tommy makes lots of friends so that he looks forward to school.
That’s great about Erik making friends!
Hi, Sorry someone stole your white bear, why would someone want to steal? I took Darcy to pre-K this morning. He was afraid for awhile but settled right in by the end of the day. Hope it works out for Tommy, as time goes on. Jasmine used to be be really terribly afraid when she was in nursery. I would have to sit there with her for about 15 minutes, and the teacher would have to come and take her off the bus. After awhile she was fine. Hope you get some downtime in for yourself, you seem soooo busy!! Have a great evening…take care! *~Shelley*~

I hope all goes well (or by now WENT well) with Erik’s IEP meeting. Sounds like things are looking up for him with friends. That’s great! I’m sure Tommy will adjust. Maybe because you’re so close to him at home with the sleeping etc. he has a very strong bond with you and it’s harder to break away. It will come in time though, I’m sure! My DD was VERY clingy when I dropped her off at preschool and she wasn’t that way at home AT ALL!
