Can't believe Micah is 5 years old already...wow! Everyone here has something going on, so you'll probably just have to read and catch up.

Sure hope you can stick around! You've been missed.

Micah is such a blessing... I don't know how i would have gotten thru the last two years without him. .. and yes i'm very happy with Pat. We have a great time together.. He has a Harley and u know how much i love to ride.. The divorce is what's killing me he's trying to bleed me dry.... But God will take care of him, i just want it over with.... and move on from that darkness in my life.... He's someone else's problem now not mine!

Haley, I am so glad to hear from you again. Micah....my goodness, he was a cute little guy before, but now....what a handsome little man he is. And you....you are so pretty and Pat, you two look happy and look good together. I hope it stays that way for you. I know how unhappy you were before. It's too bad he has to continue to be an a$$. Hopefully it will all be over soon.

I'm so sorry for the loss of your mother. I lost my mother August 29th. It was really hard, she lived with me the last 9 months of her life. I miss her terribly, she was 88 years young. We have our memories of our mothers now.

I'm so glad you're back!

But Micah does look a joy to be with. It's always nice to have a partner to give you strength.

He's had a tough time with the whole divorce thing and my mom passing they were so close, but i think with the counseling it has been helping. he has a little bit of anger issues i'm trying to be very patient with... But any 5 year old tries to push your buttons.. He needs to learn what the word NO means.. lol... I can't always try to fix everything with love. At least that's what the counseler is telling me not to create a little monster.. But its hard to say no to that cute little face sometimes.. But i have to be strong.. lol.... I started him on a star program for good behavior, and been taking tv, game, and outdoor play time off of him when he is bad at school.. and the backtalking gets a little spank on the bottom to know that mom is not putting up with that... so been working on it since winter i think we are making progress here, I'm new at the mom thing too...

I bet it has been tough for him, but it sounds like you are doing everything possible to help him get through these tough times. Of course it's hard to say no to that sweet adorable little face!

[Janet]

You're a good Mom Haley and it sounds like you're doing all the right things. You are so right that the word 'no' means 'no' and that backtalking will not be tolerated no matter when or where. Stay strong, pretty soon they're all grown and you wish they were small again.

Oh that backtalking... I think i got it under control now.. He knows not to push my buttons... I take the tv off him, play dates, playtime.. So he's a smart kid.. He's learning fast.. I told them at his daycare to do the same and not to give in.. They get rewards for being good at daycare also. So that helps me alot!
