Supermommie's Beautiful Life: February 2013

http://supermommiesbeautifullife.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html

Thursday, February 28, 2013. What Rhymes With Comet? Last night I finished 2 finals for my classes this session, working all the way to midnight. Well, technically I turned in the last final project thing at 11:58pm. It was due by midnight. I was rushed like crazy and I really needed a break today to keep my nerves down. So this morning I got up, very excited to go to the girls' school to see Becca get her Student of the Month award. Go Becca! Cue the elevator music. I'm all for taking my kid in to the e...

Supermommie's Beautiful Life: March 2014

http://supermommiesbeautifullife.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html

Thursday, March 27, 2014. I'm tired.  I'm worn out. I desperately need a break. I sit here in the waiting room at speech therapy. I took my girls to my grandmother's so they could hang out with her. I just needed quiet. Lately things with Micah have been one fight after another.  We can't get through a day without a meltdown. I know what is happening,  I see all the visible signs: hair growth in all those boy places, pimples,  and the horrible boy smell. Still, it's hard to be his parent right now, too.

The Anonymous Confessions of My Lunatic Self. When life meets up with church, home, work, baseball and breathing. Just pretend Becca's eyes are open. Friday, June 4, 2010. Some People Think Our State Is Square. If you have been keeping up with my facebook account, you'll know that Trina and I are in Colorado on vacation. Yesterday was our 10th anniversary. It's been a great 10 years. In reality, I need to get some of the pressure off my back by losing some of the weight up front. Spending some time in th...

Supermommie's Beautiful Life: September 2013

http://supermommiesbeautifullife.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html

Monday, September 16, 2013. Ali and the Squirrels Part 2. So it's official. My kid has ADD. I knew that. I just have a paper to prove it now. It's kind of anti-climactic, but not really. The actual diagnosis has a finality to it that makes me want to crawl up into a little ball, but then bust out and start fighting. It's a weird feeling. She's just Ali. I hate the idea of changing her, I just want to know how to adapt so that she can function better. I just don't know. Once again, waiting. She doesn't ha...

Supermommie's Beautiful Life: August 2013

http://supermommiesbeautifullife.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html

Tuesday, August 13, 2013. My Kids are Going Crazy. I'm seriously frustrated as a parent right now. The school year has begun for my kids. They always start right around the first of August in their school district. Since Micah has moved up to middle school, his schedule is now different from the girls'. He started last Thursday. Middle school just got harder. This morning routine is going to need some work. I just don't know what to do. Something is wrong with my kids. Are they stressed? What do I change?

The Anonymous Confessions of My Lunatic Self. When life meets up with church, home, work, baseball and breathing. Just pretend Becca's eyes are open. Monday, November 26, 2012. Alright. I was at work today and began to talk about some of the stuff that has happened over the last 2 weeks and realized that it has been packed. I need to write some of this down so my memory doesn't fade in time and I can refer back and say, despite all the highs and lows, it has been a very good two weeks. Wednesday started ...

Supermommie's Beautiful Life: Entitlement and Groceries

http://supermommiesbeautifullife.blogspot.com/2014/11/entitlement-and-groceries.html

Wednesday, November 19, 2014. I discovered something about my son yesterday. He hates the attitude of entitlement in many disabled people. All that being said, you can understand his lack of patience with people who use the word "disabled" to mean that they should get away with things that don't follow the rules of polite society. He normally isn't so terribly insensitive, but I could tell that this guy was on his nerves. He came up behind us and said, "excuse me, could I go ahead of you? Now, if you kno...

Supermommie's Beautiful Life: September 2014

Tuesday, September 16, 2014. Teenagers and Autism Stuff. It's hard to be a parent of a teenager with autism. This morning I took my son to his first period class almost 2 months into his 8th grade experience by literally carrying him on my shoulder. I put his backpack on my back and he kicked and screamed the entire way to class. All of this was because we were out of bananas and I wouldn't take him to go get one instead of taking him to school. Life isn't about the missing banana. Is he hungry? Today th...
