My home is a mess right now. No more P on the floor. no. not that. Jacob decided that he would get rid of that. Because it didn’t belong where it was. One of the handy things about kids on the spectrum. Gotta be something handy. Lookin on that bright side. Because seriously. My house is a mess.
I mean the attitude in my house right now. It’s been one of those weeks where I have screamed and yelled and nothing works. I just can’t be bothered making allowances for all jacob’s ‘things’ he needs so darn perfect and rigidly routine. Long story short .. noone likes each other this week. I miss my hugs and cuddles and loving kids. If you have them, please return them.
So anyhow, just now a special song came on the radio and it’s one that Braden and I sing together. And I missed him. And realised I AM the adult. God how’d that happen, i AM the adult and I need to break the cycle.
So I declare this weekend shower-the-kids-with-love-and-hugs-and-just-have-fun weekend. The Warriors are at the Auckland Zoo tomorrow. So we might go. Outings are a disaster, Paul and I always spend the drive home wondering why the heck we bothered as the kids fight and cry and wail in the back. Often Paul and I have to actually yell at each other to be heard as we are having the “Why did we bother” conversation. not this weekend. This weekend it will be perfect. Who am I kidding. But I will scrape up the last ounce of patience I must have left somewhere – again if you have my patience, please return it and please stop stealing all the good stuff from my hosue. and it’ll be AWESOME! And if it is raining we will take out multiple DVDs, buy lots of bad food and drag all the blankies into the middle of the lounge floor and fight over where we will sit and whether we have all had the same share of said bad food. lol. Sigh.
And inbetween all this greatness, I shall scrap. All those lovely memories. You know the ones. lol.
laters.
