Mark

Mark has been doing great. The doctor has gotten him on a medicine that he was on to begin with, but didn't help before. He has been a joy to be around now.

He has been doing worksheets almost everyday. I bought it from a school supply store and he actually likes doing them. I am also having him do a Map Game on kidsgeo.com for him to learn his states. He likes trying to beat his score from the day before. He actually asks to do these things. He'll be ahead of the curve when he gets into school because he is working in a 3rd grade level workbook.


Sometimes he tries too hard though. Although I know all he's trying to do is trying to help, if I tell Trevor to do something, Mark jumps right in. I'm trying to get it across to Mark that Trevor has to learn things too.

The other day he made my day. I had to fill out the yearly paperwork for his dentist appt. They marked out the area for employment. Mark asks "Why don't we have to fill that part out?" I said "Do you have a job?" He said "No, but YOU do." I said "Where do I work?" He looked at me (like I was crazy) and said "At home with us!" Thank you son for recognizing that being a mom is a job too :)
