We are home! It was a long drive home, but we made it. Spencer and Rachel both seemed happy to be back in their own beds. Spencer seemed excited in his sleepy state to see Mike, but then when Mike got home from work tonight he was just like he usually is, as if Daddy was no big deal. That really bothers me. Spencer is becoming so attached to me. I really need Mike to work on that relationship. I know he's got a lot going on at work, but it just seems like he gives them all he's got and they don't give a shit and it doesn't really do him any good. Then when he gets home, he's got nothing left for us, who do give a shit and it could do so much good. Maybe I should try to figure out how to approach him about switching the two...
I think Mike finally saw what I was saying last night when Rachel was all smiles for him. He was surprised and I said that that is what kids are supposed to be like and that's why I worry about Spencer's reaction to him. Mike gave Spencer dinner and I stayed away. Now they are sitting on the couch together. Mike is snoozing cause he was up all night. It took about 15 seconds for Spencer to listen to Mike. Once Spencer realized it wasn't optional, he was listening and minding.
There was another thread on the message board regarding autism. This time Jenny McCarthy's son and vaccines. I wish the topic would stop coming up. It just seems like everytime I turn around its right there again. I don't want to think about it anymore.
