nothing to say….
Filed under my life by sherriknits at 10:29 pm on Nov 16 2008
I don’t think it’s because I blogged every day in October, but since then I have barely had anything to say. I’m just checking in because someone wanted to know if I was ok. 
Yes, I am and I appreciate the concern.
No pictures today.
This last week feels like a blur. There was too much going on even though it wasn’t necessarily me that was so busy, I barely saw Kenny.
Tonight we had a prayer meeting at our church. Since most of the family is on the worship team, it was Tyler and I together. I made him come sit with me when we were asked to get into one section. He was not pleased. When we all sat down, he remained standing with his back to me and holding his head. He would not sit down and I didn’t want to cause a scene, but I could tell he was considering going to sit with Rhianna and Mayah who had to stay in back since Mayah was sleeping. So there he is, holding his head (my friend asked me if he had a headache…no, he is just being stubborn). Rhianna gave him the signal to sit down, which dashed his hopes of getting to go sit with her. So he did sit down, with his back to me, feet in the aisle.
Then he got a communication card and wrote out the names of all the family that was there…excluding me. I guess he wanted to make sure I understood he was not happy with me….but oh well, I am quite used to that, I guess I didn’t touch too much on his stubbornness in the 31 for 21 posts…but it’s part of my daily life. He still is not speaking to me and we’ve been home an hour and a half. He will quickly dispel the myth that “these kids are always so loving”. He is his own person and for that,I am glad….but I will cry the day I make it on to his “list”.
All I can do is laugh. We have therapy tomorrow and I do hope I am forgiven by then or it will be a long day.
oh….ps….adding this post-publishing:
After the prayer meeting tonight, we were talking to someone in an office and afterwards couldn’t find Tyler. Many people had just seen him but he was no where to be found. People were starting get serious about helping us find him and I heard people start calling my name. He was in Kenny’s office under the desk getting more paper. Kenny had gone in to look but didn’t look under the desk. He will never answer when you are calling, I often wonder if he even hears because he’s in his own place. Ahhh, the joys.

Jonathan is also very stubborn, which has it’s good and BAD! Glad he can think for himself, BUT it never seems to be at the best time.
Today will be one of those days for me, he has a GI appointment. He ALWAYS gets mad at me when I take him to the doctor. He sits with his back to me and won’t look at me, and places his hand over his eyes. About the time I know the doctor/s are coming in I make him sit up and act nice. Never fails they ask if he is OK, then I get the joy of telling them he’s made at me…they seem to find it funny, I don’t. He is very good for them , then when their gone again it’s back to the cold treatment. The length of time he is mad all depends on what we do after his appointment. If, we go out to eat then he’s happy with me again, if we come right home I’m the bad guy for the rest of the day.
I tell Arthur all the time going to the doctor makes me the bad guy, and Arthur is the TOP DOG being Arthur’s favorite. I’m OK with this and love to see the bond they have….I know he loves me bad guy or not:)
Today will be fun Wesley has a GI appointment at the same time, it will be interesting to see how Jonathan acts today.
Hope you have a great day, and Tyler has a good therapy!

Don’t you hate it when you have to be the “bad guy”. I definitely take that role more than the hubby with Garrison and I kind of get frustrated sometimes, but in the end, when he’s sick or tired, he wants his mommy, so I guess that makes it all better.
