why is my week over sooo sooon!!! It is not fair...
Yes. I have a brain clot that is preventing me from thinking like a normal human being.
Two days of being at home is so not what I am looking foward to.
Two days of having to ::gasp:: socialize...is not my cup of Joe.
Alas, this too shall pass.
I got my first official "iwannameetupwithyoumissc'smom" meeting this morning.
I found a note in Miss C's notebook last night that read:
"Dear Mom....(yes it said "mom"), I would like to speak to you tomorrow morning"
So...
the issue?
the waters are no longer safe...again.
Miss C has officially, literally, made her mark.
She bit two of the assistants in school yesterday.
The story goes that Miss C wanted a toy that belonged to another child and when scolded she took revenge.
Something about the whole ordeal is a tad off.
First of all, she doesn't just bite because of those things....my guess, the kid probably had been getting on her nerves all day. For her to do something like that, there has to be some sort of buildup coming on.
Second...the assistants are sure whimpy. I understand maybe one bite...but TWO??
I accepted the teacher's concerns, but I also told her to be firm with Miss C...she knows right from wrong...she knows authority. They can't keep baby-ing her just because she is the smallest...or because she is extremely ::cough:: adorable...
The teacher also mentioned concern over Miss C's latest fixation: Paper Clips and Staples...She'll see them, she'll open them up and pretend they are "Unicorns".
No, I am not letting her smoke from my stash.
Of course, I explained that this is part of the territory that comes along with Autism: Fixation on certain objects. Just like the toothpicks, the spoons, the toothbrushes, clothespins, horses, little pet shops and now Spongebob, the staple and paperclip thing is phase....
I guess I'll have to chat it up with her psychologist to see how we can work on this issue..yet again.
....
In other less serious Miss C related news...she has become a pathological liar.
She lies....all the time. She know she is lying...she thinks I'm buying it. Who the hell taught my daughter to lie????
She sits in the last row of our car, so I cannot see that she is NOT finishing up her vitamins...
"Did you finish?"
"Yes mom".
How do I know she is lying??
"Did you eat them all?? Where is the bag?"
"I ate it all...no bag...I ate bag too".
"Really?????"
She is constantly lying about stuff...I asked her about the bite incident before I left this morning and her statement: "I don't bite...Miss C is a good girl".
I bet.
Other wonderful perks of Autism..is the fact that some children can't be spoken to metaphorically...because they will take it literally...
"Miss C...if you keep on lying..your nose is gonna grow".
She quickly touches her nose and starts bawling..."Noooo...no nose grow!!"
"Miss C..you are the most beautiful lil' girl in the universe!!"
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOO...NO UNIVERSE!! Of Puerto Rico...."
Fine suit yourself...God I hope you are taking notes...
.....
besides that...I still have no flowing water...I am one day...2 hairs and several pots short of becoming a Guess star in the GEICO Cavemen sitcom...
Can you believe that...???!! They got a sitcom????
::rolls eyes::
I have better things to pitch to NBC...
Like a single-mom with a child with autism and a compulsive liar..who also happens to be cute as a button (the kid not the mom...)...dealing with no water and fabulous shoes...
It can be a Sex and the City...meets Mary Poppins...
It could be good...
What kind of sitcom would your life be???
Pitch it to me...
speaking of pitch...billybob..have you seen my boys playing??? Wildcard baby!! Wildcard!!!!!
