5 Positive Things 17 Aug 2010

1. Luke has earned a good behavior stamp several school days in a row.  He is very impulsive / hyper - so this is quite an accomplishment for him.
   
   
2. Luke has had a dry bed in the morning for 3+ weeks.  He went for a long spell with a dry bed several months ago, but then slipped pretty bad for a couple of months.  I was about to buy a bed wetting alarm when I realized that the good ones cost a mini fortune.  I woke him up at night for several nights and that seemed to get him back on track.  Since that dry spell, he's only had 2 accidents.
   
   
3. Luke got accepted into a social skills program at school.  I don't know a lot about it, but am happy that he'll get some extra help in that area.  I will be learning more about it on Friday.  I am hoping that he'll learn more about how to tell if someone is happy with the way he is acting - such as being too silly or too rambunctious.  Time will tell!
   
   
4. Ryan's mood has been pretty good since we worked out a problem he was having with his teacher.  He'll probably never really like school, but the past week or so he's been more accepting of having to go.
   
   
5. I finally got a hair cut that I really like.  My hair is wavy, which makes many styles difficult without a lot of work.  I don't have the time nor patience to work on it for long - not to mention the lack of skill for styling my own hair.  Although I don't really like my new stylist's personality (judgmental and preachy), I really like what she does for my hair.
