Last minute wedding WWYD?
theYoungerMrsWarde replied to ravinlunachick's topic in General Education Discussion Board
You could wear a purple and red hat :001_smile: -
Ds4 spend an entire afternoon of shopping going between a baby elephant (arm-trunk engaged) and calling me "Mama Giraffe," and a ballerina (ballerino?) doing buree (can't spell it, but arms up curved above his head, walking on tip-toes.) Did I mention we were walking down the street going like this? Yeah :tongue_smilie:

What do I do with my two year old?
theYoungerMrsWarde replied to ChristineW's topic in Accelerated Learner Board
:lurk5: I also have a 2 yo who has known all his letters and phonetic sounds for a while. He also knows numerals 1-10 (up to twenty is iffy,) understands one-to-one, and can count up to 20 and down from 10. He's also a lot more verbal than ds#1 was at this age, and has memorized a lot of songs. And all the basic shapes, though he might be color blind. I am afraid to try to teach him to read because I'm afraid at this age he'll just memorize the words instead of blending/sounding them out. I would like some guidance in this as well. (And I'm not a tiger mom, either. He learned all this watching big brother doing it.) -

Wait, your key unlocked their door?! If so, I think it's time to switch the locks! -
"Here, have a belt!"

I think showing your underwear goes beyond "weirdness" and is more "inappropriate." If a grown-up was going around with his boxers exposed to under his cheeks (saw this at hs all the time) around little kids, would he not be arrested for indecent exposure? How is that different from this? -
Quick, "Mom and Dad" are away . . .

Sigh, and I had a great political link about bOOKs that I wanted to share... -

You have described the natural formation of dh's toenails, or as I like to call him, Dagger-toes. :D -

From YoungerMr.Warde, Registered Dental Assistant: For an 11yo, the very back teeth should be permanent. Around 12yo (plus or minus a year is not unusual) he should get another permanent molar behind that one. He is coming up on the age where he is about done with his baby teeth (around 12) So its not unusual for them to be at least a little worn down. My 4yo grinds pretty severely as well, enough that I can hear it when I stand in his doorway while he is sleeping. Once he gets older, a night guard isn't a bad idea. Unless the grinding is severe, most kinds outgrow their baby teeth before it becomes an issue. The most logical explanation is that his pain is from the adult tooth trying to erupt underneath the baby tooth. If it is a cavity of some sort, it is worth it to see how close the adult tooth is to coming in. If it is close, some dentists might say it's better to just remove it rather than spend money on having it filled. As far as seeing yellow on the top surface, enamel is a somewhat translucent material. If it gets worn down enough, you would be able to see the sub-structure of the tooth (this is slightly yellow) It doesn't necessarily mean the enamel is gone. As someone who works in a dental office, I would try not to get too concerned. it is far more likely to be something simple than it is to be a genetic disorder. A year and a half is a long time for someone his age to go without being seen. Best advice is to ask friends and family if they know a good dentist you can take him to, and see what he says. Don't be afraid to ask questions. Some Dentists may not realize something is a concern to you, if they feel it is normal for a child his age(such as wear on top of the teeth.)

What Time Do You Go to Bed?
theYoungerMrsWarde replied to TheAutumnOak's topic in General Education Discussion Board
You didn't put other! I need an other! :willy_nilly: :D But seriously, I do because I don't got to bed at a fixed time. I should, but dh and I over-indulge in kid-free time :tongue_smilie: -

Are you going to have an Open House Night? -
Wow, you describe my situation exactly, except our drive isn't that long. I'm not sure how I feel not being a part of the class. But the church that I want to do it at also hosts the Bible Study Fellowship that I go to. That is open to anyone from any church, and I don't feel bad about going there for that. You can always make a small donation.
