He will be nine

My son will turn nine years old in a few days and I thought he will be ten already. I messed up my counting. I asked him last night how old he will be and he said ten. I am a terrible mama for forgetting his age. I even told one of the guy at work yesterday that he will be ten soon. He wants to have a birthday party and invite his friends, but I told him no. I told him it cost money. I just want to buy him a cake and have a burger and hotdog at home with family, but he wants his friends. So yesterday I made a reservation at one of the pavilion at the park and have his birthday party there. We have a small house for his friends to play so the park is a god idea. He is so happy and now I have to start planning his birthday and sending out invitations for his friends.

does not like to sleep

It is almost ten at night here now and my son just went to bed. He is supposed to be in bed at nine, but sometimes he does a lot of things and forgets the time. I have to keep reminding him about his bed time. He knows already how to check the time, but he does not care about it. He does not like to go to bed and sleep. I do not know why a child does not like to sleep. I wish I am still a child so that I can have enough hours to sleep.

my son

My son was having a fever since on Saturday morning. He was supposed to play a baseball tournament, but he did not. He was sad about it and we were all sad too. We were excited to watch him play, but he got sick. ON Monday his daddy took him to see the doctor, and she gave some antibiotic. He had some infection. Today he feels a little bit better, but he might still stay home tomorrow. I worried that he missed two days of school already, but his health is important. I hope he gets better soon. I hate it when my kids get sick.

diary

On Sunday my son asked us to buy him a journal book. He decided that he like to write now so my husband bought him one. Since then he started writing down his thought and we like it. I like the idea that he likes to write and it is good for him, but he told us not to read it. He also likes to read books and now he keeps reading the “Diary of a Wimpy Kid”. So far he reads five books of it already. It is a good thing that my son likes to do these things. He needs it and it is good for him. Writing will exercise his thoughts and reading travels his minds.

his not feeling well

Last night my husband took our son to the emergency room because he could hardly breathe. Earlier that day the school nurse called us and told us about our son. He was not feeling well so we decided to take him to the hospital. After a few hours the came back home and the doctor said just give him the treatment we used to give. Last night he could not sleep and we just kept checking on him. We are really worried about him. I hope he gets better today. I do not know what he did yesterday or what’s in the air to trigger his asthma. We might take him to the doctor today. I hope he feels better soon.

no school pics

Yesterday my son supposed to bring money at school for school picture, but he did not ask me. He said that it is ok not to pay because the school might ask to retake his picture again. He was not interested of asking money from me because he said that I do not have any money. He asked for ten dollars the other to buy books at their school book fair and when he came home he had three books. He thought that because I gave him ten dollars for books then he could not have a school picture. I told him that I like him to have a school picture earlier.

Asthma

Last night I woke a few times because I heard my son coughing. He was asleep, but he was coughing. His daddy woke him up and gave him some medicine. He is asthmatic so every now and then he has asthma attack. I thought to take him to the hospital last night, but he felt fine after his daddy nebulize him. I am always worried about him because he cannot sleep very well. I think the changes of the weather would trigger his asthma. It is a little bit cooler here now after the very hot summer. I hope tonight there is no asthma attack.

He got hurt

My son got a small accident tonight. I was at school and when I got home I saw him putting warm towel on his lips. I asked him what had happened and he said that he hit his lips when he was trying to open the bottle of Gatorade drink. His lip was bleeding and has a big bump on it. I would like to get mad but I hugged him instead. He was bleeding and I knew it hurts. I told him to just be careful next time and I do not want him to get hurt. He went to bed without brushing his tooth he cannot do it. Poor son!
