So...today was one of those frustrating days. Bubs comes home with a note that he ran from his teacher AGAIN and that this time he ran out the front door. Just don't know sometimes if you want to laugh or cry. I mean seriously. This time wasn't as scary as the time he ran into the woods. But...how many times will I hear that a teacher has to chase my kid around the school.
Then...to top it off his homework was maddening. I really cannot bear it some days. The reading and writing are somewhat productive but most days the math just simply makes me want to bang my head on the table a dozen times. Today the math was using a HUNDREDS chart. Oh my...it took me a while but I did begin to realize that the amount of numbers on the page was what was causing the shut down. 20 minutes into the second problem I realized that if I color coded the chart it became more manageable. But now we still had 12 more problems on the page...YIKES. Okay so finally we get finished. There was just about no more patience left so I thought some space was gonna do us both good...then I hear him at the school table. Here is what he was doing....
Translation...1.cup 2. Buzz 3. pencil 4. egg hunt (copied that from my sign in the room) :)5.Dad 6.Box 7. rocks 8. water
So...that's why I say the kid never ceases to amaze me. What's bottled in that brain just needs more ways to get out...he just needs more time...he just needs a mom who continues to believe in him. I pray God gives me the daily strength to do just that...
and man I just love that kid!
