Thank you -

I had to come and say thanks so much to the lovely comments on my last (very frustrated, and blue) post. I even have to acknowledge a new commenter ... :O) gee, had no idea I had other 'readers'. :O) Kind of neat! I appreciate the cyber-hugs, and definitely appreciate the validation to my motherhood experiences. ;o)

Things are better. Really, much better.

We have a little chart in place with rewards jointly chosen by K and C, so that seems to be pretty motivating. We have the first day of school tomorrow (so nerves and jitters, and excitement seem to be organizing themselves inside their heads, thus keeping the mischief at bay!) and we have had a great weekend.

SO, with all of that, I am going to get some first day of school "treats" and things together, and I will get a bigger, yet better descriptive post on here tomorrow (and who knows - perhaps a photo or two to go with it!)

thanks again ..... *smooch* to all of you!
