This evening we took the boys to dinner at Cheddars. We got into this discussion about God and how He's been speaking to my son. He said God told him today to share his Reese's pieces that he got from the treasure box with his friends, so he did, with 2 little girls who are always mean to him. He said he asked them if they knew why he shared with them, they said no, he told them that God told him to, they said "okay." I am proud that he is not scared to share his faith at such a young age.
I also hate that he sometimes gets a bad wrap at school. He's been complaining that he wants to be homeschooled and that the kids are mean to him. I don't like that he is struggling so much. He's so smart! They keep telling me that he can't seem to focus, and I've heard this same song and dance so many times with regards to my oldest son. Apparently it was bad enough that it was referred to a "social worker" who called me today to inform me that she's heard about him having behavioral issues and wondered if we needed assistance. I kindly declined and explained that all is well and he's 9 and is expressing his independence. He's a good kid and he's smart. And I already have an autistic child, so I know what to look for. I guess she heard enough, she told me that she didn't need to talk to me anymore, and that it sounded like I had had everything under control and she didn't understand why he was referred. So glad someone finally understood me!
My #1 child is completely out of control right now. He came home heavily loaded down with attitude. He got upset that someone in his class was trying to help him glue stuff and he "didn't want any help, because I can do it myself!" Wow. He's not normally that passionate about doing stuff for himself. He's been so off the chain lately. I'm going to have to start closely watching what he gets to eat, again. Hopefully I can get to the bottom of what's going on.
God please take care of my boys and guide me and my hubby in raising them.
