So my big guy turned 7 on Friday. He had a great day, we all did. He got a new bike, 20", so it's a little big on him but the 16" was too small. His 16" will go to his younger brother who at 5 hasn't figured out how to pedal yet from lack of the ability to try!! We went strawberry picking then my cousin bought us all lunch at Pizza Hut. Came home and took a rest then dinner at his favorite Red Robin!!!
My cousin doesn't get to see the kids much, most of our relationship is via the phone or email. She was impressed with how mature Joey seemed around his brothers. She would know, she's got 6 kids herself from 2yrs-9yrs of age. So I was shocked to hear that. Then again he has his maturity about him that shocks me because it's mixed into utter ADHD immaturity!!
He's been doing well at home as of late. The kids next door moved away and even though he didn't play with them all the time it was like because they were out he had to be too and then he'd want to run the neighborhood without permission. Now it's not so much and that's much better for me.
He started summer school today. The morning was rough, he didn't want me to leave. Josh is in class with him and he didn't like that idea. Who want's to be in school with your younger brother right? But I couldn't put Josh in any other class... it's a Reading class. He's got one of the awesome substitute teachers too, I just love Mrs. C!! The principal had to walk him in so I could leave... when I picked him up all was good, they both had a good day.
Tomorrow he had summer school then speech right afterwards for 20mins. We'll come home and swim, eat lunch, rest time then up to Children's for a check of his blood pressure so we can get the Rx for his new med!!!!! I'm going to start it Wednesday right after summer school. Want to get it started sooner rather than later.
