I am sitting down and taking a well deserved rest for a bit now that the older two are in bed for school. And the littlest is being taken care of by daddy. xD

Oh man, you’re gonna need A LOT of patience for kiddos with ADHD and dyslexia. )x She’ll thank you for not going easy on her one day when she realizes she can’t get her way by acting like that. I hope she gets lots of good support at school to help her learn.

it's why we're still living in an apartment where we are. The school here is actually helping her a ton, and we're waiting for enough money that gets us a house in the school district.
SCD is basically mini autism if you don't know. It was only discovered in 2012 - Social Communicative Disorder. It's symptoms match autism but it's missing some autism things so it's something different, but close enough that it's called mini autism. [/color]

I don't. It just leads to some very exhausting days and a few to many frustrated yells and breather breaks. XD

She was only just diagnosed with not only adhd, but Scd, and dyslexia. A trifecta that makes learning incredibly difficult. And mommy is NOT who she wants to learn from.

I also had to deal with the "mommy I think I'm a guy but I'm really a girl" long drowning conversation of a 5 year old who endlessly talks and doesn't let you respond and she repeats it in different ways and you have no idea how to respond because you're not really sure what she's saying.

She apparently thinks that her voice sounds like a boy? Or someone told her she sounds like a boy? I have no idea.

My almost six year old was having a gender identity crisis tonight and I had no idea how to help. FML

Both girls hate that I won't just give them answers and that I will calmly walk them through helping themselves.

When they burst into tears like I'm a wicked witch because I nicely said "try sounding out the word" and didn't say "the word is blah" .... I get a little pissy and lose patience by the tenth time they do that .

Help them with it. Sometimes it takes ten minutes. Sometimes it takes hours. Depending on our frustration levels.

Mine are rather high today. . . And my OCD clashes with my daughter's adhd to drive us both up a frustrated wall. So when I get the "I don't want to do it I want you to give me the answer and I'm going to throw a hissy fit until you give me the answer and I have to make no effort"

And she in return gets "I will help you. I will not do for you." .....

Yeah we take many many breathers and it can last for hours on those days.

Oh and I also made a shoe rack... That must be where my extra time went. That I lost.

I did get one entire shelf of books organized finally though. And I made labels for every single book on it so that they'll start putting their books back on the shelf.

So frustrated... I left hours ago just to get the girls off the school bus. Then I had to do their homework .nmake dinner. Do dishes. Clean their rooms. Get them ready for bed.

How the heck did so much time pass without stopping at all
