went to dry clothes and the dryer died. Had to go to the laudromat. Forgot the cost and how long that takes.
Thanks for all the kind words. I think I was a little more upset than usual, since that boy Henry in our neighborhood died from falling off his skateboard and hitting the back of his head just a few months ago. Thank goodness Addie was fine.
I think I'll buy Addie a pack of Chuckles for tonight, those are her favorite!
Oh, crap, I completely forgot about that or I would never have teased you. Say sorry. :blush:Quote:

I'm feeling pretty cr@ppy about myself today.
I used to babysit a girl a bit older then my son. When she had been here about a week, I talked to her mom and asked if she had autism....or something. I didn't think it was autism, but there were some similarities, for example she wouldn't make eye contact. It was important because she was not interacting with the other kids. I needed input from her mom on how much to push her to play with the other kids without upsetting her. Turns out the girl has a missing chromosome. One of the symptoms is a developmental delay.
After her mom no longer needed a babysitter we lost contact until a few weeks ago when my son and the girl met again. She invited him to her birthday party, and he was planning to go....but it was planned the only day my kids can all come over for Christmas (yes...we're still waiting to do that.). So my son called and told her he wouldn't be able to go. So, she calls and tells him it's the day before. But, he still can't get there. So, I called her last night.
Turns out the party is....just him.
i feel so bad, because she was so excited about this party. :sad: I just think of her as her....I forget that chronologically she is much older then she acts. And she doesn't have many friends.
i have promised her that within the next two weeks we'll have her here and I'll bake her a birthday cake. I'm trying to arrange it for next weekend....she doesn't do well with waiting (already messaged me twice on Facebook).
so, today I'm ticked off at myself. But I'm trying to fix it!
