Mommy is begging you to stop with the scream fest. My nerves can't take anymore of it this week....
Love. Mommy
I am seriously shocked the police haven't shown up! I have her therapist and case workers card out just in case they do. I am feeling very sad and frustrated. I used to love the Holidays. Now it's like I just count down for them to be over. It's not fair to the other kids that are not in some mental illness spiral, so I need to snap out of it :/

Dear Kelly,
I am just a reader, but really care about you and your family and how hard your Christmas is looking. I am praying for you right now, and will pray for you throughout the rest of the holidays.

Thank you so much for your kind words, and prayers :)
I am working on a list of fun things to do right now so we can get into a better Holiday spirit around here :)
Oh! Sorry!!
The first summer we had the kids they screamed 7 hours out of the day - sometimes more. Sometimes I would think I am so glad I am in the country. I am so glad one one want to rent that house next door... Otherwise the police would be here on a regular basis. The twins make out like I'm killing them!!!!"
One day, after Buster screamed on the side of our hill for 5 hours non-stop and threatening me with a stick- while I stood nearby in the hot sun in my swim suite getting totally fried, a police officer did drive up. It freaked the kid out enough to shut him up and give me time to run for a towel. I was thinking "Okay... here goes." He wanted to drop off some paperwork for my husband. I swear we had 6 visits that summer. All for this paperwork on an accident my husband was witness to. Each time I thought it was because of the kids.
Im a recent follower, and wonder if we have the same kids. We just finalized adoption on a sib set of 3 and life just stinks right now. Kids suspended from school and getting no where with any help. Praying things get better with your family this holiday season.
Same song in a lot of houses right now. The outside world just doesn't get that all the stuff they think is fun about the holidays so ISN'T for our families...and NO, we aren't depriving them of anything by not participating. Yup, I've had screamfest kiddos as well and yes, I've also been reported 4 times. It sucks buckets. Many prayers that it doesn't happen to you. Hopefully things have settled down a bit.
Kelly, I'm new to your blog. I'm an adoptive mother of one awesome boy (yet seriously challenging) whom we adopted from foster care.
Christmas (and really from mid October until mid January) is difficult for our boy. He has several screaming fits and rages. It's exhausting, but I try to remember it's his trama...
You're doing a great job. Keep lovin' her unconditionally (even when you'd rather scream back at her). :)
