I have NEVER had this happen so I should count my blessings--but a hand down a poopy diaper at naptime is not a good thing. At least she yelled my name so I knew something was up! Grrr and yuck. It was only on her hand so it could have been MUCH worse...

I have 7 1/2 days left of diarrhea screamy clingy boy until he is gone forever! I wish I didn't have a 2 weeks notice! The parents are annoying me by helicoptering over me, showing up at random times, etc. funny how now they can show up on time! Every time I leave the room to change another diaper or go to the bathroom this kid screams (17 months old). He still throws food on the floor for no reason. He's the first one here and the last one to leave. He doesnt walk yet so I have to carry him everywhere we go. Im so glad he's on his way out the door! He's such a pain!

How is it that I can make snack, put it out on the table, tell the kids snack is ready and they don't notice....yet if I quietly take a bite out of my personal chocolate stash, they surround me within seconds asking for some??

They have a radar for stuff like that. :: Happens to me all the time, too!

Out of control

OMG!!! DCK's are all out of control today!!! Hitting, Pushing, & Throwing!!!! Thank God its FRIDAY!!!! I just couldn't take another day of this!!!!!

Do you know what's worse than an overnight diaper that hasn't been changed.......... a poopy overnight diaper that hasn't been changed. Letters going home with the parents today.

Why, why, WHYYYYYY, when kids are fed, with clean diapers, and have just had a nap, must they WAKE UP SCREAMING AND CRYING?????!!!!! You are totally fine. I promise I'll still come and get you if you don't wake up P---ed off. Sigh.:confused:

I'm spraying down my house with Lysol as I drink my 3rd cup of tea.

I know dcb is awake, but I don't care, he's staying in bed.

[sharlan]

I can tell it's going to be a wonderful day, NOT!

I woke up early, dcb came an hour late. I feel like crap with a sinus infection brought in by who, YEP, dcb. After 2 cups of herbal tea, the junk is draining and I'm coughing and choking. DCB tells me, don't share your germs, I don't want your cold, at least I don't have a cough. (I wouldn't be choking if he'd learn to wash him hands instead of spreading his germs everywhere.)

I tried to be polite as I told him to go to bed.

[MN Mom]

Must be something in the air. I woke up this morning with a dreadful feeling...I wanted to crawl under my blankets and pillows all day and just hide. To say my new DCB was a challenge today is an understatement. He was a MONSTER. I can only hope tomorrow will be better! *crosses fingers*

[sahm2three]

So. Worn. Out. I know there is going to be good days and bad. But man, just when I think I am getting things figured out, I get hit with a day like today. To say that I am physically and emotionally DONE is an understatement. I am convinced that I am sent all the worst and hardest kids on this earth. Ugh. Seriously BAD day. I don't know if I can do two more days.

[AmyLeigh]

Can I just say....

AAAAAAAHHHHHHHRRRRRRRGGGGGG!!!!!!!



Okay, now I can make it through the rest of the day now. I think.

Parents pay the last day children are in attendence for the week. Had a family that took Thursday and Friday off and forgot the check because it wasn't a normal payday. They said they would bring it over. Well a week later she brings it with an extra $15 dollars on it. Late fee is $5 a day and they have 2 kids. I need a back bone. I think she seemed a little disapointed that I wasn't greatful for $15 after 6 late days. Grrrrrrrrrr

Oh Country..you just killed their theory haha!! Thank you!!! My reply to them was "there is a first for everything!!" I was a bit discouraged

[Country Kids]

You are very welcome!!!! Potty training (or learning as we are instructed to use LOL) is a touchy and frustrating subject. Some kids get it NO problem and others like the control of it. Every one used to tell me..have you ever met a kindergartener in diapers?? LOL

They will get there, you just need to decide if they are worth training or not. If it is a huge issue for you, you have to demand participation from parents or let them know this is not the place for their child and give them a termination letter.

best of luck either way!!!

My friend that is a kindergarten teacher has a few in pullups in her class. No, there's nothing delayed about them, just not potty trained.
