We took the boys to the zoo last Wed. It was HOTT!
(Ross didn't want to make a good face for the pic)
They were able to "paint" with water on this chalboard.
Took Mark to the doctor today. I have been going absolutely crazy~ and I mean literally. I cried Sun. cuz I just can't handle how Mark has been behaving lately. When we went to the zoo~which is 5 MILES long and Mark walked the whole time~when we got home, you'd think he'd drop from being tired. But noooooo~ he was bouncing off the walls. Sunday, he talked for 5 hours straight and never got quiet. Now he's done a lot of this before, but it's getting worse and worse. He was diagnosed with Oppositional Deviance Disorder and will also be diagnosed with ADHD. She couldn't say ADHD until she gets an evaluation from Mark's teacher, but it's pretty clear.
The evaluation~ First 9 questions~the attention part of ADHD~have to have 5 out of the 9 questions.....Mark had 8 (I didn't answer one question cuz it didn't have to do with Mark~ so technically he had all the ones I answered)
So now maybe I can get some help for him AND me. I've been having a tough time dealing with him the last few months. Especially when I have Mark and Ross together. They just grate on each other and fight all the time. Just pray that I can get thru all this.
Write ya later.
This is a marble egg statue. It's made from Georgia marble.
This explains what eggs are what.

Second 9 questions~the hyperactivity part of ADHD~ have to have 5 out of the 9 questions.....Mark again had 8
Next 5 questions~ODD~have to have 3 out of the 5...Mark had 4.
Then the rest had to do with depression and anxiety disorder~ which I knew he didn't have that.
So now maybe I can get some help for him AND me. I've been having a tough time dealing with him the last few months. Especially when I have Mark and Ross together. They just grate on each other and fight all the time. Just pray that I can get thru all this.

Thank you so much for the support in my comments. I was so frustrated cuz it was an anonymous comment and that whoever put it up there completely misunderstood what I was saying there. I know we don't have the same situation, but I know you understand what I was saying. I know what you mean when you say for lack of better word...sometimes I just get so overwhelmed...it's crazy. Thanks again though.
