Heaven gained a dear sweet angel on Saturday morning. Carrie no longer has cancer or pneumonia or a blood infection. God made her perfect and whole once again. :(
My son fell into a futon (of his own clumsiness) and has a huge gash in his lower lip (fully inside, no stitches) and knocked his two upper front (baby) teeth loose-neither of the bottom teeth are loose yet. He is on no gym, recess, or other rambunctious behavior until they heal. :(
Tonight he had an epic meltdown-over not setting the table. Of which when asked he told me he didn't want to. I gave his brother the job and he lost it. Stomping and crying and yelling. Not wanting to eat dinner. It took well over a 1/2 hour and me moving his plate back to the counter for him to set, and get his sticker, before he calmed down.
I'm gonna guess one or both of the above problems is triggering this. Carrie's funeral is tomorrow, we are going. I decided that the wake would be too much for him this week. We are also taking him home 1/2 day, as he is on a soft food diet for 7-10 days. :(
But he's here with me, for better or worse. So is his little brother, who also has been having epic meltdowns-he just got potty trained and started preschool today. Hopefully, we have many more tomorrows. I'm not sure how I would handle it, if there were no more :(
