Tuesday

What a busy day away from work. Gary's out of town, so I got up early (6) and got Chloe and I ready, and then woke the boys up around 7:15. They got up well ... and I made pancakes and sausage for breakfast. They ate well and got along well. So, we had nowhere to go but down.

Ben was first to the busstop, and thought he would 'save' a place in line for Evan (which is against our 'busstop line rules') so when Alek got out there, he was pissed, and came back in and tattled. So, I went out and talked with Ben and he gave in easily ... too easily. When Even got to the bus stop, Ben let him cut in FRONT, instead of BEHIND him. Neither makes anyone later in line happy. So, we had to talk it out and Evan was fine with moving to his place in line, but Ben was bent out of shape.

So, a few minutes later, Ben kicks Kyle. So Kyle is crying and limping so Kim and I tell Ben and Evan they have to stay near us and not run around, and I tell Ben that he's lost Nintendo for tonight (he likes to take it to the children's center when we go to the gym). So, now he's pissed. And he sulks off, won't come back, and starts being defiant. So, I get him and make him sit out on the curb until the bus comes. While getting on the bus, he kicked Alek's bookbag.

Ok, the kids just got home on the bus ... more later.
