Back to Normal - Or What Passes for That Around Here

Alex went back to school under duress yesterday. It says alot about his usual behavior that the teachers were worried when he took a nap. They thought he was sick again and took his temperature. Apparently he just needed a little rest to get back up to snuff. Today he definitely bounced back. Miss Sarah said that he'd worked back up to his usual quota of timeouts and rowdy behavior. When I picked him up he came running out of the classroom to demonstrate a flying, rolling sort of ninja kick.

This evening was more of an ordeal. Due to a morning fit in protest of teeth-brushing, he was banned from TV for the day. (He did finally brush his teeth, while sobbing and repeating "I love TV! I love TV!") I told him to get used to it - twice a day for the rest of his life, or it was an all oatmeal diet. It doesn't help that Papa Tab has a nifty set of false teeth that he uses to entertain the grandchildren. Maybe tomorrow will be a calmer day!
