Everyday is full of surprises. Seriously, I could do without them for a few days. It began with John coming home early because he is sick. Poor guy. Next, came two medical claims that were denied and the cancellation of CCS for Alex's physical therapy when I got the mail. I straightened out the medical claims once again but the CCS denial for physical therapy is one that I do not think I can fix. At this point, I have to honestly say that while they gave me some good ideas of what to work on with Alex, the minimal time they spent with him didn't amount to a hill of beans anyway-- so it really isn't even worth fighting for. Of course the biggest surprise was saved for last-- a phone call from the vice-principal about some inappropriate note passing. I didn't even know my son knew that particular word or what that even meant--- ugh.
Tomorrow, Alex gets new AFO braces and hopefully a lift in his shoe. Later in the day, I will take Caleb to his third to the last orthodontist appointment. While I wait for him, I will run over to the jewelers and pick up my wedding ring that I snapped on a chain link fence when I went to close it a few weeks back.
Busy, busy, busy.
Worthy of mentioning--- William made his Accelerated Reader (AR) goal so next week I will take Taco Bell to his school and have lunch with him. Caleb won his last baseball game. Sveta and Jonny were awarded student of the month so this Friday I will join them for breakfast in the school cafeteria.

That feeling swept over me today--the one that just says, "enough." For me, it is one particular child that requires constant discipline/direction. This mama needs a little break from it all ;-)
Love from the North,

Congrats to the kids that had some high points.
As for the inappropriate note passing: I'm sure you dealth strongly with that.
Busy time for you.
ugh
Boy, do I know that feeling. Our children all know way too much these days. Those who don't learn it at home pick it up from the world around them. Where did innocence go?
It sounds like you are in the crazy end of the year stuff too!!
Some days do hold a boatload of mishap!! Sounds like a full one to me.
Love how you can see the joy in the day too!!
Praying for productive days leading up to your trip to your new blessings.
Funny what CCS offered us was not much more than a hill of beans either. I laughed it off and never went back. I could do more than they wanted to do.
DOn't like surprises either and I have had some big ones recently. It's life full of surprises...good and not so good! One thing steady is the One who walks us through each surprise!
What's CCS?
Love your life Christine...it's AUTHENTIC. Not without struggles or victories! God giving you grace each day to get through!
Thanks for keeping it real!
