I think this was shared hair after bath...
Hike day, celebrating Anniversary
I took this photo because it was significant that I
was carrying Bobo's backpack for him.
These were some of my thoughts....
Such a difficult student at times. He won't do his work and has a million excuses. " i feel sick. I'm tired. " "it is hard to transition to school."
Or he will say, "this is easy." He won't get the answer and then get the answer and if I don't hear it the first time, I am admonished for not hearing him and I get, "I said that!"
It is exhausting. I want to tell him how exhausting he is- but I'm not supposed to. I get to be the bigger person. The mom.
It feels like a mountain I climb everyday and not only am I carrying the gear and him on my back but he is complaining the whole way up. It would be one thing to teach a "struggling student who is trying to grasp an idea student" but when you add the layers of resistance = exhausting!
So I had written the above words before this hike and
then realized, I get to carry Bobo's pack but he
beat me up the mountain. Hang in there mama.
It was good for me to witness, a metaphor
that was allowed to change.
We all made it! And that is good!

Tried a new bakery...with a grumpy employer.
Dev and I love this lunch at Whole Foods!
Feeling a little independent....
Good day!
