Friday Morning

The 4th grader that rides to school with us got here about 8:05 so the kids were playing and not watching TV. Natalie and her friend were playing with these flying kids meal toys they got from Burger King a while ago. They would stand on one side of the play room and wind it up then launch it into the playroom. They share and take turns very nicely like a 3rd and 4th grader should do. William was in the bedroom looking at his comic for a while then he came out and joined the girls.

As usual my two start acting up in one form or another. They launch the flying things at each other, do it at the same time and race to get them back, then fight over which one is which. I swear the 4th grader is so thankful to be an only child after witnessing the Natalie and William nonsense 5 days a week.

I ran into the bathroom to make myself presentable enough to drop the kids off at school this is what happened while I was gone.

William and Natalie were fighting over one of the flying things, so Natalie tackled William and kicked him. Then William hit her with the little plastic piece to the flying toy 2 times, then he punched her in the face. I walked out of the bathroom and William looked at me and said
“I know, I know I have to go to my bed!” and he walked into his room and placed himself on his bed.

I must be getting good at this, I don’t even need to tell him to go have a “time out” he commits the crime then gives himself a punishment. Oh wait, maybe I need to start having tougher punishments!

Natalie is fine, I started laughing when William got to his room and she saw me and started laughing, her face never even had a red mark on it. They are all at school and I have 3 hours and 45 minutes to get my list done so I’m signing off for now, have a great day!
