Competition

After last Sunday's uproar, we had three blessed days of relative quiet. The medication that Kola started a week ago is finally taking effect. None too soon.

He relapsed today, however, and pulled ornaments off the Christmas tree and threatened to destroy the wreath on the front door. As I was dealing with him (or ignoring the behavior, as best I could), another child interrupted me. And interrupted me. Again. And again. After the fourth time, I had her repeat back to me: "Mom is busy. Don't talk to her now" to prove that she had heard me. It didn't help. SEVEN times I was interrupted.

It's a contest. Who can act up the most to get Mom's attention? Aaaargh!
