On wheels, on oil, on ice -

Whoops, don't spill it.

I actually thought we'd be skipping the anniversary-related anxiety this year with the kid. No such luck. Last night we had a kid afraid of his own bed, tearful and anxious who needed a lot of rechecks before falling asleep last night.

Maybe I'll find out about that party his foster family held the day before he was given to us. I sure hope so. My kid *loves* parties - but the actual reality of his own appears to trigger some pretty awful stuff.

We checked under the bed together (and bonus points, found a kitty there), did a lot of reassuring...but at the same time, balancing that out with 'not too much, that's the wrong message to send there' - you just don't win here. So help me, I find the person who explained zombies to my kid, I keel them. Don't worry baby - the kitty will get them!

Swear to God.

This is the point in the planning where I start making lists for each day - and each day is different, and the critical levels of getting those things done THAT DAY rises exponentially.

Today, I get more crap out of my house and to the storage unit. So help me.

No markers. No weapons of any kind. No superheroes. No Bakugan stuff. Um. Now, you ask him and you're going to hear all about the superhero, Power Rangers, you name it.

I'd rather have Spongebob. Also, there is an Amazon wish list I just updated: http://amzn.com/w/4RAYDBKXJU0N

I'm suggesting tilt puzzles - you know, the ones with the maze and wee little ball? Recent discovery that he just digs all to heck and breakfast.
