Mr. Pumpkin head meets Simon
And Daniel
Creativity is a wonderful thing
Well, Vince left Friday morning to meet up with my aunts and uncle to go on their cruise of the Mexican Riviera. He called me this morning after they signed in on the QE2 as they were waiting to board their Carnival cruise ship. I guess that will be the last time I hear from him until he reaches LA a week from today.
So far, I think we are doing okay -except for Friday itself. I got a call from Daniel's principal saying Daniel knocked down a 4th grader after he gestured he was going to cut Daniel's throat. The boy got in trouble already, but Daniel ran off before he could be taken to the principals office for his part in the trouble. And I guess Daniel told him he would get a knife - which in today's society will not be tollerated - even just in jest. So, we had a police come to our home and talk to him about the seriousness of his actions - but then started talking about Colombine and other shootings, etc. on the news, which Daniel was totally clueless of, and I just hope, that doesn't give him any more ideas.
We meet with the principal on Monday morning and then we have a psychologist appointment for noon. Daniel really has been dealing with a lot of anger and other issues lately, and hopefully, we might be able to help him with emotions of grandparents' deaths, bullying to him and him being the agressor.
We actually made it to church on time and with everything we needed. I was quite proud of my accomplishment. And the boys behaved themselves quite well during Sacrament meeting.
My neighbor was nice enough to give me an extra pizza from a party they had last night, as well as some goolash, so I didn't even have to cook.

Those pumpkins are adorable. Hope you do well this week with all the family on a cruise. I miss Carma already! My boys love their grandma!
Hang in there! Sorry to hear about Daniel's troubles at school. My heart also goes out to him over the loss of his grandma. That's a tough one. Hopefully, you'll get some of the answers your are searching for in his case. You are in our prayers!
the pumpkins look like fin, I can't wait until my boys are old enough to do stuff like that, maybe next year!!
