The title explains it all, Erin had a bad night. The first thing was I had to cancel her cheerleading practice due to the monsoon (rain) we had going on. Second, we got home and she had received her progress report today and low and behold my baby got a C on her progress report in reading of all things. She had some issues with math last year, but never reading. I was just blown away by this and let myself get carried away with my tone with her, if you know Erin she is very soft spoken and does not do well with confrontation or people being upset with her. Needless to say she went to her room shut her door and was upset with me. I explained to her about how she needs to read more and focus on what she is reading instead of just trying to finish fast. I told her that we would read parts of her story everynight, see she said her story was just too long for her to remember all of it. It is about 15 pages long so I figured we would break it up and focus on different parts everynight. That was my conclusion, because my baby can not have a C on her report card that is just not acceptable. I told Dee tonight I allready have one delinquent in the house I can not have another. Just Kidding, Brittany is not a delinquent (only when it comes to her grades) JK -See, Brittany does not do well in school, if she was to bring home all C's I would probably buy her the Mall !!! She tries, (I think) but just does not do well in school and never has.
So all of that aside Erin had a bad night and hopefully she will be in a better mood when she wakes up in the morning.
I did go to the cheerleading meeting tonight, because remember I got suckered into doing the coach thing! I think all will be okay with it, I am just hoping that I dont loose my mind with everything else going on, you know -work, Brittany's practices/games, Erin school work, cleaning, cooking, the list could go on for days!!!!
I am going to go and try to sleep now, because that is another thing I deal with - lack of SLEEP!!! I think I am going to make an appt. so I can go see a Dr. about my no sleep problem....
Peace :)
