funk

Some days I get in a funk and little things will set me off.  Like the article in Parenting about how to raise your boy to be a man.  What I really need is Special Needs Parenting with articles about how to rock a PPT without pissing off your child's future teacher.  Or how to prepare your typical children for a lifetime of keeping an eye on their brother. 

But then I kick off my woe-is-me underoos and try to have a little fun (and if I can fill the fridge up at the same time - even better).

My buddy got his assignment for the last Family Project for school.  Ask your child what he likes most about school and draw a picture of that.  I will give it a try, but we may "forget" to hand in our last home project.

Monkey bear has sprouted all of a sudden.  She has long, gangly legs with knobby knees that look as awkward as a 9 year old.  Maybe there is an awkward phase that hits at 6 as well.

Rara has mastered sitting up from lying down.  Only took her 11 months.  She used to just lie there like a bump on a log until you sat her up.  She currently is working on pulling herself up to stand.  She practices every chance she gets.
