I get the shots for my arthritis but the doc numbs everything so there is only a little pinching of the needle then a little soreness for a day or tow-- but then-- Ahhhhh, it's so much better for months at a time.<br /><br />As for your hot tub and umbrella-- You look fantastic and i'm officially jealous!<br /><br />Take care, xo jjJoanna Jenkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10836376588710862173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36007054.post-45131496217703484042011-07-12T03:02:39.840+12:002011-07-12T03:02:39.840+12:00That spa looks like the perfect place to relax at ...That spa looks like the perfect place to relax at the end of the day!<br /><br />Hoep things work out with your kiddos - they certainly don't have the best of relationships with their mom, do they.

Attachement/bonding/behavioural difficulties of children who have been removed from their birth parents care is well documented/ These challenges can still be seen in children who are lucky enough to live in loving stable homes (kinship or not). The trauma that can result from a break with a significant attachment figure (even from a very young age - infants) can have a long lasting and profound effect on an individual and often will only be truly seen when in an educational setting.<br />While the way the school may have dealt with issues so far is not appropriate for Brylee - they have a very good point about the effect that Lacey coming in and out will have on her and Griffin.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36007054.post-78575095182361043392011-07-11T22:57:05.509+12:002011-07-11T22:57:05.509+12:00Oh I wish I could be in a spa right now.

I must admit, without knowing ALL the facts, Amandas comment (who does know all the facts) makes sense. Sometimes I think they jump on some aspect of the childs past & use that as an excuse to explain away different behaviours etc.<br /><br />Brylee & Griffin could not be more wanted & loved at home and it seems to me to suggest her problems are due to Lacey seem an easy way out and an excuse for the special ed people - lets stick her in a box of "abandoned kids". Easy problem solved, explains everything & lets move onto someone else now.<br /><br />Those kids are lucky they have you & Stu who love them and want them - that is what should be reinforced, the positive stuff not the negative.Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17809180814553643509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36007054.post-17927995691962582982011-07-11T20:31:03.432+12:002011-07-11T20:31:03.432+12:00I am soooo jealous of your spa...what a gorgeous p...I am soooo jealous of your spa...what a gorgeous photo of you and the brolly!

What normal person in their right mind would force a child to be friends with people who bully her and treat her like shit! If its correct to only be friends with people her own age, well then the programmes at school are not healthy! My kids have friends of all ages at school, and they are happy. Its got nothing to do with Lacy, B's home environment is absolutly fine, she is loved and well cared for. She is very well adjusted and gets protected from crap when there is a visit. that issue I feel will only raise more crap, and like you need that LaaLaa.Amanda-Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02008177229744479442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36007054.post-54275008436974316722011-07-11T15:24:32.224+12:002011-07-11T15:24:32.224+12:00What a lovely picture of you and the spa!

One of my grandkids had that issue because his biological father wanted NOTHING to do with him - when he was little and then all the way through school.<br /><br />It seems the kids always have to pay the price for adult mistakes.<br /><br />Bursitis - O that is the Pits!

As you know my birth mother was as useless as tits on a bull so i was bought up by people who were not my biological parents.<br /><br />I think the biggest feeling I can remember having hanging over me when I was growing up was that I wasn't good enough, which is a HUGE thing for a child to feel and carry around with them as it sure does effect their self esteem.<br /><br />I thought that there must have been something about me that made her not want me with her. thankfully she didn't cruise in and out of my life as I think that feeling would have increased everytime she disappeared again, but in my case she continues to chose to not have a relationship and sometimes I just wish I could shake her and say "I'm an ok person you stupid women, just be normal and get to know me". As an adult I am better able to understand that her decision to not be a part of my life (well maybe a phone call every 3 - 4 years when she is drunk and needing a supportive listening ear) is her problem but for a child, trying to comprehend these feelings is tough.
