Taekwondo Testing

Today WP1 has another Taekwondo testing. I am going because his dad has another commitment. He was so scared and sad at the same time because his dad didn't get a chance to see him test. I really felt bad for him. He made it through and did well. I pray that God will help WP1 get through what ever he's going through.

WP1 is going through . . .

He's changing and growing up. At times I'm not sure what to do with him. I don't want to be too harsh or stern. I want him to know that he can trust and depend on me. I want him to know that I'm always here for him. I want him to be able to share his thoughts and feelings with me.

WP1

I picked WP1 up from camp today and took him to his Taekwondo class. I was glad to see him. On the way home we talked about his trip to North Carolina and other exciting things in his life. He'll be nine in August and I want to do something special with him and KZ1. They are going to spend a week with me. I don't want it to be too boring!

WP1's changing . . .

WP1 went to church with me. He still has an attitude that needs to be checked; now! He'll be nine next month and in the fourth grade. I'm going to read up on his physical as well as mental changes that nine year olds experience. All of the characteristics may not apply but I'm sure there will be a few there that do.

WP1 is changing. His attitude is becoming ruder and ruder. I have to keep him in check.

No Gems Today

Today is a day without any of my gems. Today is not a me day but a Ramona day.

My Youngest Gem

Yesterday (6-30-14) and today I have the youngest of my gems, WP2. We went to a funeral yesterday. He was well behaved and I was saddened by the tragedy behind this death. We stayed in the foyer while the service was going on. He went to sleep. which was a good thing.
