My poor little guy

He made it to second grade, and not only that they had room for him in one of the magnet schools for math and science. So we thought Whoo-Hoo; right!! Well as good as it is for him academically he has a knack for getting under peoples skin and slipping up behavior wise. It only took him three days to get to this teacher. He has a hard time adjusting to new situations and they have no patience for anything there, and I understand. It is a privilege to go to these schools and they don't have to deal with those problems.
I know he is very impulsive but Jared and I can help him control it by making him second guess things before acting at home. But when he is on his own it doesn't sink in quite as fast. He knows the right choices to make, he just gets to excited and forgets. I just bought some herbal meds for him to see if they will help him slow down a little. The reviews on it are all positive and everything in it was approved by the FDA. I searched all of the ingredients and still couldn't find any bad reviews. They have a money back guarantee so if it doesn't work we send them the empty bottles and get our money back. I really hope that this will help him with his impulsiveness and will make him more confident so he will make better choices. Because it breaks my heart to know that he is such a good sweet boy and no one else sees that. They just think he is a very smart boy with behavior problems. Cross your fingers for us!!!

Updates for now

My grandpa is officially in remission. NO MORE CANCER!!! Could we be anymore lucky? Now they are on a nice relaxing, stress free fishing trip. Very Well deserved if I do say so myself. I hope they extend their trip to Vegas. I can't wait to see them again.

Ethan is up to 7 new teeth. It's funny to remember I used to hate losing teeth and I would yank them out at the first sign of loosening. He'll wait and then play with it and wait and then mess with it some more and then wait some more. For being 7 and not having patience in much he has it with those. But he also has my "picker" gene. When he gets a scratch or a bump he will pick and poke at it until it bleeds and then brag about how big his owwiee is. I thought he would have outgrown the band aid stage by now. But I have to be mean and hold out on the band aids until there is gushing blood otherwise he would be covered in Hot Wheels band aids.

"Sicko"

I highly recommend this movie to everyone!! It shows us how greedy we are. It explains how the HMO's of our country are ruling our country's leaders and how the middle and lower classes are suffering. Everyone has heard and maybe even said the expression "The rich get richer and the poor get poorer." This movie will make you physically ill at how our leaders and the insurance companies treat the American people. It will make you want to move to France, England, Canada, heck...anywhere but here. How sad is that? Being an American is a wonderful thing. We have our freedom and a choices that many others don't. I hope that one day our country will do for us what these other countries do for their citizens and make us proud to be American!!!

Facts:
America has one of the highest infant mortality rates

France has free health care and college education for it's citizens. They give you a nanny for free to help you after you have a baby.

England gives you 6 months paid and 6 months unpaid for maternity leave. And they don't charge you to have a baby like we do.

There are numerous other facts that are illustrated in this movie that will make you shake you head.
