2011 a picture of better times. 

I think we've moved around another corner yesterday. While I was getting off the golf course, I got a call from daycare. Sweetie was getting, and has been moving in this direction, agitated and wouldn't sit down. Going to the doors and wanting out. The head of the daycare asked about some medication to give her. Some Anti-Agitation medication. 

When I called the doctor office, they couldn't see her until March. I didn't think daycare would allow her to stay there under those conditions. The doctor's assistant called and we got a prescription for something. Don't remember just what it is, will update when the prescription is filled, not until Monday. 

It may have been wrong for me to do this, but, I was upset with her, so I told her that she had been a bad girl. It hit her like something that I hadn't seen before. She was shocked. She was suddenly the little girl her mind has made her. She was sad and had the look of disappointing child. 

Maybe I need to have a firmer hand when I take her to daycare. I've been very sympathetic to her pleas when I drop her off. Maybe I should be more of a parent that needs to be a firm voice that she will be alright and I'll be back. Because I don't know what I'm doing, and am always trying new thing, I'll try and report back. 

Wow, the sunrise is all red, looks beautiful. 

Because we are joined at the heart, and day by day, Sweetie is shrinking smaller and smaller. She asks about everything, "Where does this go?" "Why do I have to do...?" Getting her to put on her seat belt in the car is getting close to not driving with her in the car.  Learning small things to keep her occupied and making her feel helpful. Life is very different today then it was last week. 

I know I'm going to be tested as each day goes by. Because I know this, I really only have one choice on this road. Keep the Shinny Side Up, and I'll be able to navigate the pot holes in this road. God Bless.
