boarding schools?
Permalink  
 


Does anybody know of any boarding schools for pre-K and K??  Seriously.  These boys are driving me crazy and have been for the past week or so. :shoothead:

They are both so whiney and constantly fighting and picking on each other.  Whenever one has something the other has to immediately have it.  They are always competing and wanting to be first at everything.  Ugh, the list goes on.

I'm in the homestretch (less than a month until my due date!) and I so don't need this now.  I'm tired, cranky, achy, HUGE.  Heck, the boys are probably wishing they could send me away, too. LOL

/vent

In other happier news, everything is going well.  Baby Girl is very active and healthy.  Yesterday my midwife said my cervix is already getting very soft, and I'm now on weekly checkups. smile

I'm sorry they're driving you crazy.

Maybe you could let them spend quality time with family members that don't live with you.

Something must be going around.

Yesterday Andrew told me that he won't be my heart anymore. (I always tell him he's my heart). He said the new baby will be my heart and he was going to live with his new family. We hadn't even been fighting. Just tying to clear dead stuff to burn before our burn permit expires. Hadn't been talking about the baby. Just out of the blue.

So, yeah, if words could kill, I wouldn't even be here to type this.

These boys...

um, jolynn, my 2 are EXACTLY like this.

they compete over everything.

fight over toys.

jake hits, emily cries.

emily stares, jake screams.

emily sets a toy down, jake grabs it, emily screams. vice versa.

it's enough to make me run away from home.

anyway, misery loves company. :glum:

LMAO Jolynn. I am sorry you want to send the kids away, but ITU. And if I were 8 months pregnant right now, I think I probably would be seriously searching for some far away summer camp for my girls!!!

I think Victoria must be right and something must be going around. Maybe they know the end of the school year is near or something. IDK. But mine have been particularly fussy with each other lately.

And the competition thing drives me bonkers. Anna actually cries when she doesn't win at something or beat Kate-over the absolute dumbest things. For example, when it is rest time, they have to try and use the potty first. So they race upstairs and whoever gets up there first (generally Anna) gets to go in their bathroom first. Whenever Kate happens to get up there first, Anna will seriously break down into tears because she didn't get there first, lmao. I say lmao, but she gets that way over so many things that I am not actually laughing about it. It is SO DUMB and SO ANNOYING.

Hopefully all these kids will live through the summer!!!

I think that these kids may be feeling all the changes that are coming up. They will be turning 5 this summer, leaving PS behind, going to Kindergarten, Jo and I have babies coming that will change the kids lives. I haven't had a 5 yo before, but I am thinking that becoming 5 is a big deal. There must be some stress, even if they don't know how to verbalize it.

Andrew has kind of mentioned this too. He wants his birthday, but doesn't seem keen on actually being 5. I'm afraid that with the baby coming, I may have talked up how great it will be that he's going to be 5. How cool it will be to be older and all the neat things he can do that the baby can't. Maybe I went overboard. Or, he just has to say the opposite of what I'm saying??? IDK...
