Morning all,
Firstly I found the Dora egg and clock Dolly, just before they arrived yesterday afternoon, phew!! After much egg and chocolate exchanging (plus late birthday and Xmas gifts from middle son and partner who missed my daughter and family at Xmas due to conflicting work schedules) we had a lovely afternoon and evening.
However 2 things happened - Mr 15, being his usual stressed self when the family are all here at once (he loves them dearly but usually escapes constantly to his room for some space - unfortunately his room was occupied by Xbox playing nieces) had a slight altercation with my youngest g'daughter (aged just 9) because he didn't want to help her with a computer game; his oldest brother then picked up his new phone to check it out and he lost the plot a bit, snatched it back and yelled at him not to touch his things etc, so I had some smoothing over to do - Oldest son does understand because he has so many of the same issues, but was still upset ๐
Then my daughter informed me that her youngest - my middle g'daughter, (just turned 10) is being homeschooled from next term - she is apparently excluded and bullied by the other girls, she spends most of her out of class time in the library, escapes to her room to be by herself when they have visitors etc (you all know the story). Mr 15 has been saying for ages - she is like me - there is something really different about her etc. So she is being enrolled in Distance Ed, which is where Mr 15 went for 3 years. I mentioned AS to my daughter but of course she was immediately up in arms - my daughter hasn't got that etc etc.... what can you do? at least she is in a position to homeschool, with her partner earning very good money, and being back at uni herself this year. The poor wee mite was in tears when we were talking about it, she is just so unhappy at school ๐
Aside from that the weekend has been quite pleasant ๐
Lisa , I love that dwarf cartoon - it is absolutely true lol!!
