What a Day

Sometimes it is like walking on eggshells around my house. Goose can go from really good to really bad in just a second. It is times like this that I feel so helpless and lost. I don't know how to help him or what to do for him.

I picked him up from Daycare and he told me a little boy kicked him in the back and was calling him names, then we get in the car (after I examine his back since teacher was gone) and all is fine. We get home and unload the car and I start supper. Goose decides he wants cereal so I gave him just a little to tide him over until the food was ready. I told him I was cooking and he could have just a little cereal. He then ask what I was cooking and I told him that I had him some macaroni and he said "Woooohooooo I love macaroni" so I'm thinking I have done a good thing. I tell him it is time to eat to come to the table and he said "No I'm not hungry!" Now there was only about 5 min in between the Wooooohoooooo and the No!!! I took his DS and told him he had to at least come to the table for a few minutes and that just fueled the fire!!! Now he decides he is gonna cry (real tears) and this is a kid that never cries! I wish I knew what happen in that 5 min that just turned him upside down. How do you go from one extreme to another that quick? I then could not touch him, talk to him or anything he just wanted to be left alone. When he decided to stop crying he informed me that he does not Love me!! I said " Yes you do you are just mad at Nana right now!" Now about 30 min has passed and he is still pissed and if I speak to him he burst out into tears. I just left him alone and went about cleaning the kitchen. Then he decided he was hungry and he ate and we talked about the food. Now it is time for homework and we fly right through it with no problem. He looks at me and says " I Love You Nana" I said " Well you didn't a few minutes ago so I'm glad you changed your mind" He said " I always love you Nana"

The evening was like dealing with two different kids!! He is now happily asleep and that is where I'm going next. Just wish I could get into his head. The way we know he is really sick or had a really bad day is if he actually cries real tears so something had him upset but he is not gonna talk so I am not gonna know what it is. It is like pulling teeth to get him to talk so I just let it go and told him if something was wrong he knew he could tell Nana anything and I would try to help him. I Love You Goose!!!!
