My Little Corner of the World

Thoughts on raising and homeschooling a special needs child who has Aspergers, Tourettes, and ADHD. The life of a domestic goddess. Documenting the life of Superman (11 yrs) and Ladybug (4 yrs).

Good day!

Week one of camp is done, just three more to go. Superman ended it on a high note, well as far as I can tell from his communication book that he brings home. So that is worthy of the happy dance right there.

Today we went to the zoo for a few hours. Definitely a great choice since the weather was fabulous and the kids woke up with a heck of a lot of energy. It was one of those mornings where you realize rather quickly that if you don't get them out of the house, they'll self combust and get into everything they shouldn't. ;) I was really proud of Superman because it was busy at times, and not a single meltdown. He did so great!

We had a picnic lunch which was nice. After we got home, Ladybug had a nap and then we filled up the kiddie pool and put the sprinkler on. We were outside for a few more hours and then we all did some gardening. Hubby was supposed to be in the office all day but was able to work from home so that was a nice change, having him around and hanging out.

We had an awful storm a few nights ago and I thought it blew in sections of our fence, but upon closer inspection, it looks like it was kicked in. This is only the THIRD time it's happened. Sigh. Bored kids in the neighbourhood. That's one of the pitfalls of living on a corner lot. Easy target. So the guy who built our fence came back and re-inforced it. It's only been up for a few months. Let's hope they leave us alone for the rest of the summer.
