What a week!

This entire week, I kept wishing for it to be over. Ethan has been a little nightmare. But only at home. So I guess it's good that we were busy and out of the house a lot. Actually, we had some really great times this week (it's just that the bad times at home seem to overshadow everything else.)

On Tuesday, Ethan had his great dr's appt and then we went to the church to help cook lunch for nearly 100 missionaries and the general authority that was teaching at their zone conference. Although Ethan spent most of the time in the nursery playing with the other kids, he was so excited about making lunch for the missionaries that I let him come out at the end to help us serve dessert. It meant that he was there when they sang to us. Seriously a tear-jerker, and Ethan keeps asking when we get to do it again.

Wednesday was probably the worst day Ethan and I have ever had. I'm trying to forget that it happened, so I'm not going to talk about it any more.

Thursday was our first day of Pinwheel Preschool. The girls were so excited and the boys were shy. By the end everyone was playing together happily and they had all learned about being friends. I don't have to teach until the first week of Oct, but I'm getting so excited! That night, Ethan and I made cookies together. I initiated it to distract him (and because I wanted cookies), but we had a great time doing it.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to starting off this week with a clean slate. Hopefully Ethan will be more willing to use his "listening ears" and take the occasional nap. Also hit less. I'd like that.
