that damn song is everywhere right now because of the new madagascar movie. we don't do hardly any tv here except for sesame street. we watch two movies: finding nemo, and as of last week, madagascar. now that the second one is in the media and at mcdonald's, cough cough we have to have everything madagascar. i got gus some cock-cocks on sunday to attempt to make him happy and it came with a toy from the movie that sings that move it song. someday i pray that it will leave the loop in my tired brain.
tired. i am so tired and just generally beat-down tonight. the stress of the weekend has not left august, so we are still dealing with him. after i got him to sleep i called my mom and cried. i rarely ask for advice from anyone but i was desperate. practicing gentle discipline is hard and i needed backup.
i love my mom. she squeaked past a huge health scare today so i'm beat down from being alone with my worry about her. i cannot imagine not having her there to call and cry to and getting the response of "eat your pasta and turn on the country music channel. there's a woman bedazzling her yellow wedding dress on redneck weddings!" really, she did offer more (great) advice. sometimes the simplest answer is the best answer. get the child outside. as much as possible. outside.
i'm going to dry my tears and eat my Mandy Surprise. if you want to know what that is ask me because it's DELICIOUS and "on sale" at krogs this week.
