But Jayz.... YOU and R looked and behaved such a lovely couple.

'singing the same tune'
'accidents waiting to happen'

A and I have NEVER been like that.

He still cannot accept the ASD stuff...like he said to you 'They'll grow out of it'....he won't listen,won't learn....and i ghave not got the energy for convincing my own husband....

I so know what you mean Mrs f.....but a few years ago I was obsessed with cleaning. The house would be shining....nothing out of place....I even bleached the skirting boards daily. How many other people actaully moved their wardrobes every day to hoover underneath and behind them?. I did every day and I couldnt stop at night until it was all done.
One day a friends mom said to me "you do realise the kids will never remember the dust dont yu....but they will remember that mom was always to busy to play". I STOPPED that day and now I dont do a quarter of what I did do in a day in a whole week.
I spend my days playing with the guys and doing our thing.
I just wish I was more organised because I get mad with myself when I cant find something as important as the insurance cert and then I take it out on hubby for not putting up a shelf so i can have somewhere to store the important documents....truth be known the shelf would only get filled with clutter and I still wouldnt become organised!!!

Mrs f...R hasnt always been like he is now....and the thing that changed his attitude was when we went to BIBIC. That was our turning point. he thought it was all a pile of mumbo jumbo and that J was just a hyper child who wouldnt talk because he was shy.
When we went to BIBIC it turned hubby right round. He actually asked the EP if J could be pretending to be the way he was just to get more attention off me.....EP explained everything in such simple terms for R and thats when his attitude changed. R is far better at understanding J now than I am.....Im the one who reads the books....R's the one who works through things in a practical way.
You have just got to find the key wich will unlock your dh's mind.....good luck honey. get some sleep tomorrows another day.XXXX

The 'kids not remembering dust....but remembering mum too busy'...i had a poem like that once.....and it sure reminds me of my childhood.

one thing i am sure is they kniow i love them....and they 'joke' about my forgetfulness etc....

deep down i'm hoping for reassurance AND NOTHING ELSE from the Clinical Psychologist next week when she sees the boys....just to know that they ARE happy. Probably alot to ask a CP to do...probably best to let her 'just' deal with Leigh's Anger and general 'sibling rivalry' stuff as that's what i believe she has been asked to do.

Still haven't written her the letter that i prommised to for-warn her about alex being at the appointment too....better do that to post monday.
