Kade had a pretty tough day today. His class was loud, obnoxious, and not listening to their teacher. Disappointing adults really affects Kade and even though he was trying hard to be good, his whole class was punished. This is the third day this week that he’s been so overwhelmed with school. He seems unhappy and it breaks my mom heart to see him so distressed. All I want to do is keep him home from school and away from the things causing him pain, but I do not want to teach him to runaway from his problems. So we let him talk it out, I made his favorite pumpkin chocolate chip cookies for dessert, and we watched a shark show because he loves sharks. Things may not be so fun outside of our home, but I’m committed to making our home a happy, loving safe place.
I gave Kade a notebook tonight that said:
“To: Kade
Find something to be grateful for everyday and know that I love you so much!
Love, Mom”
I hope he starts his own little gratitude journal and is able to find and see the joy around him every day.
