It's been cold and icy here. Yesterday, the kids didn't go out to recess all day because it was just too slippery. And then today, school was delayed 2hrs. We have little bits of snow falling, but not much....just slippery.
Nathan did ok a few weeks ago when they had a school delay. He didn't quite understand what was going on, but he did alright. NOT TODAY!!! I can't even tell you how many tantrums we had this morning! One right after the other. He seemed to understand the whole school delay, but apparently the change in his schedule just didn't fly with him!! I let his teacher know when I dropped him off, but she didn't seem concerned at all. But then again why should she, Nathan hardly spends anytime in her classroom!!! But that's another post. I'm waiting for the spec ed teacher to give me a detailed description of Nathan's schedule at school, so I can see just how much time he spends outside the classroom.
Christmas being so close doesn't help though. He has his calendar in his bedroom, so he knows that xmas is coming!!! He spends alot of time by the xmas tree looking at his presents!! LOL It's so nice seeing him excited about xmas!!!

Yet another reason to live in sunny SoCal.
I hope his day went better. Are you guys on vacation after today? We are and I am hoping some of this anxiety and holiday stress calms down once out of school. Mike would be perfectly happy to hide his life away at home and almost always does better without the stress of outside stuff. Yeah, I know and I put him in extra-curricular activities recently. It was a good idea at the time, ROFL. BOy sometimes I am not so smart.
But a couple weeks off may do everyone good.

Well, I picked the boys up from school. I asked Nathan's teacher, as she walked by, how Nathan did today. OF COURSE, she said fine. I could feel her rolling her eyes at me. Then as soon as we get in the car to drive home.....Nathan starts up! First, he's making weird noises, loud noises. Then he notices that his shoes are dirty!!! OH NO!!!!! Panic sets in!! I tell him that I'll clean his shoes when we get home. He's quiet for about 30 seconds....then it starts all over again!!! And NOW, he's worried about MY shoes being dirty!!!! UGH!!!!!
The boys have 3 more days of school. Mon, Tues, and half day on Wed.......then they are mine til Jan 3rd.....it seems soooo far away!!!! Just kidding! LOL

Wow, our break is suddenly feeling really really long, lol. Part of the shorter summer break is more and longer breaks in the school year. Mine are off today until January 9. AHHHHHHHHH.
So is DH fortunately, but he is off this weekend with the guys so it is just me until mid monday.
