not so lucky the last 3 weeks. tears every.single.fricking.day. ugh. Ethan used to ask every night before bed "who's coming tomorrow?" we'd answer Noelle. He'd then ask "where's she going to take me?" and we'd tell him either gym or school or that he'd have to ask her. In the morning he'd wake up asking if Noelle was home yet and if so where was she taking him. he always wanted to be going somewhere or playing with one or more of his friends. now... now every night it's "I don't want to go anywhere" and every morning "I don't want to go anywhere...." can't win!
He has a great time when he's at school and is making lots of friends and they all anxiously wait for him to get there (I think I'm the last parent to drop at at 8am). He naps great there! unfortunately he doesn't eat lunch there - just the fruit. :( Mike says not to worry, but um, I'm the mom, that's what I do. he gets home starving and the other day made himself a jelly sandwich. cracked me up Mister independenet who wouldn't let me help with anything but getting stuff off the high shelves.
we're working through the tears with "performance incentives" (okay -fine - bribes!). books, stickers, and a star chart with the end goal being something for his Diego Dinosaur Mountain.
