Catching Up

I can't believe it has been an entire week since I last posted. I have had many things that I could have blogged about but I currently have very limited Internet access so that doesn't help.

Things are going pretty well. Nothing major to report.

I have become one of those parents (which isn't a bad thing) that is counting down until the end of the school year. Enough is enough. I am ready for a new teacher and whole lot less drama. Like yesterday, Jada's bg was too high and her PE teacher (who has D) was lecturing her on making better food choices....HELLO, she is six years old. Not to mention, it could have been a bad site or missed bolus or something else....and basically....NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS. This will be discussed in meetings for the next school year. I want it made clear that no one is to lecture Jada on such things. It just really aggravates me since she is an older lady who smokes and drinks (choices in which I may or may not agree with) and you are lecturing my kid on how to be healthy and take care of herself!

Jada saw Dr. O yesterday. We are increasing her Intuniv at 5 pm to 2mg. Taking the Abilify at 3 pm is DEFINITELY helping with her manic evenings. Now that a lot of the evening mania has decreased, I am seeing her become aggravated over little things around bed time which then makes it harder for her to go to sleep. One thing at a time.

Erin is sad that the school year is ending. She doesn't want to leave her current school or teachers. Things at home are hard for her. It seems when Jada is aggravated about anything, she takes it out on Erin. Erin and I have had many talks about Jada's words and her not meaning them. I think she understands, as much as a five year old can. She is such a smart kid. I am excited to see what her future holds.
