Life as I know it

Today I got to do Sharing time. I really believe in child interaction, but wow, it sure makes things more..um what is the word.....EXCITING!! It was fun, but by the end...I just want to yell "Get away from me, don't touch me or ask me for anything, no you can't take everything of mine home with you, yes you can have one cookie, no only one cookie, quit touching my boob I can hear you, no you can't take all the leftover cookies home, be quiet and sit down!" But instead, I say "Okay, that is the end" I haven't had much patience lately anyways. Well, I never have patience, but it has been worse lately. I think that it is a mixture of Football season starting and always hearing it in the background, , my 14 month old nursing ALL NIGHT LONG, living half packed/ half strewn around, Mike working 60 hours a week at his job, then all the other spare time at the house working..bla, bla, bla I don't like it when people use FB to complain, so I will use my blog. Thank you I am done. So...sharing time went well, and I got asked to do singing time next week. I am really excited. I told the kiddos and they asked if we could sing Mama Mia...I said no, they have to be church songs. They have probably been wondering why there isn't much variety at singing time. I may just do Mama Mia and Taylor Swift singing time, my kids would know all the songs. Katie is great a t words, but the volume...it's a little on the yelling side. She just loves to sing and belts it out. What a sweetheart. I think that she gets looks in Primary. I hate correcting people, but I talked to the Primary Pres today about all the adults talking all through primary. I've tried to not let it bother me, kept telling myself it wasn't my problem. Then today it became my problem when I was doing Sharing Time and I couldn't hear the kids two feet in front of me because of the adults in the back talking. I hate confrontation, but it really needed to be addressed because it doesn't help the kids be reverent at all. So those who don't already hate me, can hate me now. There, there is my other vent. I really was going to write something interesting on here, I just can't think of it know, and obviously need to vent. School is going good. Katie was teaching Bana math the other day. It was so cute to see her explaining in the same tone that I am sure that I use "Okay..if I have two bears and add another one...let's count, how many bears do we have now?" Jeffrey's handwriting is so much better than Katie's. The boxes for answers were a mare suggestion of where on the page the answer should be. Jeff never writes outside the box, and he will erases his mistake, Katie just draws over and over it. I have learned a couple of tips for teaching handwriting, but I do wonder if right or left handed has anything to do with it. Bana is left handed and Parley seems to be right , though it is a little early to tell. So that has been something different this year is teaching a righty, there is a difference. Parley just eats the makers, pencils (both ends) and the tips of pens for his school. We have ink everywhere, not tips on markers, no erasers, and keep having to sharpen pencils. If it weren't so darn annoying, it would be so funny. Well, there you have it.... Life with the crazies.
