My Beautiful Boy

It’s headache Wednesday!

I have no idea why but there is starting to get a bit of a pattern.  It is often a Wednesday when Corey is ’sick’.  Today it is a headache.  I spoke with his teacher this morning and there isn’t really anything that we can think of that happens at school on a Wednesday that he might be scared off.

The other thing is that he came home yesterday and told me that he had a bad day and he was angry at a few people, his teacher being one of them.  They did skipping yesterday and he was ok doing single skipping, but then they did the long rope with 2 people holding it and one skipping in the middle.  Last time they did this he tripped on the rope and fell and was very embarassed and so he didn’t want to do it yesterday.  He flat out refused to do it and walked away and he was angry at his teacher for trying to make him do it. 

I can completely understand where he is coming from here as I was just like that when I was a kid too.  I remember doing exactly the same thing in high school but it was hurdles.  I refused to do the hurdles as I was just scared that I would trip on one and embarass myself, so I ran off and sat next to the fence and just flat out refused to do it.

So I’m not sure if it is because he had such a bad day that he doesn’t want to go today or if it is a ‘Wednesday’ thing or if he really does have a headache – who knows.

Let’s see how he is tomorrow I guess!
