We’ve Got Issues, Yes We Do! We’ve Got Issues, How ‘Bout You?

Friday afternoon I watched my neices while their mother was in the town’s homecoming parade. Everythign seemed fine. We played, had fun, ate snacks, watched a cartoon. All was great. Until out of no where E pulled downhis pants and peed… on his cousin.
This isn’t the first time he’s done this.
When the incident was mentioned to their mother she made a comment about E having “issues”. As in “You’re completely messed up your child and now he’ll be that crazy kid who burns down the school.” issues.
To be honest I’ve worried aobut him for a bit, Little things, outbursts and rages and the such. But they’ve always been played off as normal behavior for a boy his age with too much energy. And it’s hard to admit that my perfect, sweet, funny, smart little guy could have anything wrong with him. The day he was born I said he was perfect, and I’m sticking to that.
So Monday morning I call his doctor and see about making an appoinment. Dearest is not happy at all. His fears are that the doctors will want to pump E up with drugs until he’s a zombie. He should know by now who E’s mother is.
Hello, crazy chick who wouldn’t even take an asprin when she was pregnant. What makes you think I’d zombie-fy my kids now?

I got the video from the Black Breastfeeding Blog, who has some gorgeous photos up of breasting in the 30s and 40s. She’s putting together a series on how at one time breastfeeding in public was no big deal. See it here, here, and here.
And a hat tip because I was directed to the blog after seeing the link for it in the comments of an article that Sara sent me. When Nursing in Public Was Normal It’s almost hard to believe that there was once a time when this was concidered perfectly normal.

It’s Signing Time With Alex and Lea
Our local PBS shows the Signing Time every Friday at 3:30, and we have to watch it or else. E loves it. Which I suppose has to do with the fact that we did baby signs with him since he was 6 months old. He gts excited knowing that h already knows part of what they’er showing, so he feels like a champ.
But that isn’t the point of this post. What I wanted to do was redirct evryon’e attention to the group blog where I share a very special sale going on. Signing Time DVDs marked down to $5! But this sale is Friday only, so you have to get them now! Hurry, before the sale ends!

After nap I handed each of the boys 1 cookie while I made their real snack.
E took his cookie, gasped, then exclaimed “Mom, you’re a genius!”.
Yes, yes I know.
