I'm getting better at following my friends' blogs. And I really like the formats they use. I had started this with the intention of almost "article-writing," picking a topic and spewing my thoughts on it. But that's not really my style. I ramble WAY too much. So, Tegan and Sierra, I'm gonna try it your way -- life happenings as they happen. Online diary, here I come.
Typical Tuesday. Logan, my oldest, had part-day enrichment at the CDC (child development center, not Center for Disease Control). I needed stamps so I can (hopefully) do Christmas cards. I stood in line 30 minutes. Our base post office is SUPER busy this time of year, but the alternative is far scarier. My only time at a post office off-base was very unpleasant. (see i'm rambling...). Ok, Logan at school, I need stamps, my friend Amy to the rescue. She picked him up since her son attends too. And Logan has a major meltdown.
What is wrong with my CHILD?? He will be 4 next month, and I just can't believe my child acts this way! Screaming, jumping in anger, crying his eyes out, "I don't want to go with you!" All in front of other parents and his teachers. Not every day is like this. But WOW!
Right now I'm chalking it up to Daddy's travels. Poor Eric has been gone a lot more than we anticipated when we accepted this assignment. It's all been for good, mind you. But sheesh. The boys have a hard time with saying hi to Daddy only to turn around and see him off again in a few days. What kid wouldn't? Thank goodness for cell phones and Skype.
Tomorrow Eric comes home. Hopefully for about 8 months (with a few 2-day trips in there for good measure). I'm really hoping that having him around will help Logan get his attitude in check.
I'm going to have to start cooking regular meals again. I hope I remember how.
