Turn that Frown Upside Down

I really wanted this blog to be positive and up lifting place for women going through all these struggles with their children. It would be a place to relate and encourage one another...LOL Who was I kidding, the last couple days have been rough! My Son seems to do this about once a month, once a month we have what I call "Manic Man" in our house. He shuts down, acts out, refuses to listen, gets in trouble constantly...it is down right exhausting and heart breaking. This morning I took him to the gym daycare like I usually do and went off to my work out. When I returned an hour later the "teacher" was noticbly distraught with him and he was noticbly confused as well. It was like he didn't understand why he had been in trouble so much. He wanted this particular toy back that she had taken away because he was throwing it and he was obsessing about it. He kept asking for it back and when he realized we were leaving and he was not going to get to play with it again today...HE LOST IT! Screaming and crying all the way out to the car and all the way home. He was screaming in the house when we got home for about 10 minutes and then at that point he had upset himself so much that he threw up on himself and then he suddenly started laughing...WHAT? As many times as I have been through this and as much as I know now that inappropriate laughter is just another symptom of his neuro problems it still frustrates me to no end. But as quickly as it escalated is how quickly it stopped and he took off all his clothes and layed down on the couch to watch a show on TV. Today was an especially hard day because I had some other family issues come up and I was stressed about those as well so I think I may have put my own stress on him which we so often do with our kids but my Monkey definately reminds me that I am doing that with his behaviors :(
