This blog is my place to vent and share resources with other parents of children of trauma. I try to be open and honest about my feelings in order to help others know they are not alone. Therapeutic parenting of adopted teenagers with RAD and other severe mental illnesses and issues (plus "neurotypical" teens) , is not easy, and there are time when I say what I feel... at the moment. We're all human!

For Miz K

Love Hubby to death and think he's gorgeous, but he does get this kind of intense, crazed look in pictures. I tried to find a few to show Miz K, but I delete most of them.





Oh NO! It's contagious!
LOL!

On the lighter side


The much lighter side actually. Ponito had been growing his hair out as appears to be popular these days, and despite waitresses asking what "she" wants to eat, he refused to have more than the bangs trimmed. UNTIL he started learning to scuba dive with Hubby (Hubby is a scuba instructor). Ponito quickly realized that long hair interfereres with putting on and taking off a scuba mask underwater!

I'm the family hair dresser (at least for the boys), but my razor had broken so I ended up using scissors. It was Spring Break so I decided to take my time and try out some new hair styles. Ponito was at my mercy!


Here is my favorite. The Mullet!

I forced him to let me take these pictures by refusing to cut anymore unless he let me! Bwaahaahaaa! (evil laugh) I never did get to take a good picture of the Mohawk (not shaved on the sides, but the top was still about 4 inches long and I spiked it with mousse briefly, but he took it down).
And of course the final result. (*grin* doesn't it look like my nephew and new niece are staring at his hair in this picture?)

A pictoral review of our Christmas Break

For your viewing pleasure, here are some pictures from the holiday break.



Here are my bored boys near the end of Winter Break -watching TV.

This is what happens when bored boys "help" each other "clean" their rooms without supervision. That is CLEAN underwear on Ponito's head. Brother's clothes and sunglasses.


Here we can see the sport sock head gear coming out the convenient back opening (recognize the sock from the TV watching picture? *eew!*) Big brother's pants are unsnapped at the bottom to drag behind for that lovely fish-tail look. Wish you could have seen him walking in Bear's boots. Note the "weapon." Watch out dirt!

This is his "superhero pose." Dustbunnies everywhere cringe at the sight!




"Aren't we cute Mom?! Well, no, we didn't actually get either room clean."



Here we have Kitty working on her school work.

"No really Mom, I can work while sitting on this side of the table. I won't watch TV."

"Dad. You don't need to sit there. I wasn't watching the TV. FiiIINNE! *dramatic teenage sigh*"

"Aren't you glad I'm "normal" Mom?!"
"Yeah, Baby, you are completely normal!"
















And now you know why I sometimes hide in my computer cubby and eat comfort food!

Speaking of clothing


This is how my baby girl dresses herself when left to her own devices.



Can't wait to show this to future girlfriends!



My Pretty, Pretty Princess.



She's so cool!



My silly kids!



LOL!! I'm sure these fit him eventually.



Goober!
