Tuesday

Day 2 without John and Ben is going crazy. I think he is going thru some sort of seperation anxiety. He better sleep it off tonight and be better tomorrow. While we were at the grocery store tonight he decides to throw his cup at an oncoming car!!! Then he laughed. Of course I couldn't do anything since the people in the car were watching but as soon as they drove past I smacked his hand and told him not to do it again. He laughed at me.
Donnovan took the math part of his TAKS test today and got done WAAAAAAY before anyone else and of course they made fun of him again. He told us last week finally why he doesn't like to go to school. He says the kids make fun of him cause he is smart and then they call him a jerk. I asked him why they did that and he told me it is because he is better than them. I had to count to ten before I carried on. I told him with that attitude he would have no friends and they would call him that. So we talked about how to not raise his hand for EVERY answer and see if he could help those around him. I also told him under any circumstances is he better than anyone else. None of are. We may be better at something but never as a whole. I am thinking I don't like this growing up stuff.
