Second week of school

Went well. Connor missed most of the Terry Fox run because he was in the principal's office, but he says it wasn't his fault. He was there with the same two little boys he was there with most of last year, you'd think he'd learn! I told him that maybe he should just stay away from them, but he told me he was just sitting on top of the monkey bars and that they were the ones who came to him, he didn't go hang out with them. I'm not really sure what is going on, I think probably there is a little power struggle for someone's friendship, but I don't really know whose.

Delaney loved school and everything about it again. Girls are so different than boys!

Aidan had a bit of a meltdown tonight. There was a request for some forms in his agenda from Tuesday and I hadn't looked at it since Monday. He's supposed to give it to me to sign when there is something in it, but didn't. And I didn't send the forms in because they are the same ones every year and I kind of hoped that they would just put them in the file for the rest of his life and not make us do that every year. Last year we did them all and they travelled back and forth to school and home until at least Christmas. I think I finally threw them out, so I'm not sure what the big panic is about them this year! Anyway, he also had to finish his homework which had been left at school and it all got to be too much for him I guess. I was still mad at the school about the forms and wasn't very sympathetic, poor guy.

We all went golfing today and it was a very, very long 3 holes. The kids had fun until Connor hit a perfect chip out of the sand-trap directly at Sean's and my head. Again, wasn't too sympathetic with him and he had a bit of a tantrum since he hates to be yelled at. He's not feeling very well though, I'm actuallyl writing this at 4:00 in the morning since he woke up coughing and choking and came and crawled into bed with us. Now he's on the couch and I'm wide awake. Poor guy, I guess he's not going to school tomorrow.

Okay, I'm seeing double now so am going to try to get back to sleep!
