I said, “Get up and let me see you smile.”
Life, Parenting, School, Song of the Day, homeschool August 19th, 2007At the close of a week that seemed fought with the difficulties of the the dramas of the bus situation and school IEP compliance difficulties with Boy #1, and the struggles of attempting to get Boy #2 to focus on his homeschool work instead of drifting off into drawing and music applications, there have been a couple of positive things happen this week. They are very significantly positive things for me.
- Bonus Boy’s mother and I are finally communicating.
- My sister and I are communicating again after nearly two years of silence.
The week ended much better, really, than it started. I have to remind myself of that fact. Living in a testosterone ladened household tends to make it very difficult to see the trees for the forest at times. Any who. I’ll probably get grief for the song I’m about to leave you with but hey, it’s a feel good song and it’s a positive one.

You mean you actually had a conversation with H? Wow. Talk about a positive development.

Well, it was via email. I came across something and I thought of her and took a chance and sent her the link and let her know that w/out saying a word to anyone about his intentions, your nephew (Bonus Boy), came home last Monday and announced that he tried out for the school choir. Which led to another exchange of civil emails. So in my boook, I count that as positive communication.
