soccer season

Why is the first soccer game the coldest day in Fall?  It has been so hot lately and then a few fall type days and now winter coats are needed.  UGH  Luckily it is a short cold spell but I hope we get some nice fall days.

It is good soup days though.  I need to find recipes for tomatos.  I have a bunch and I want to use them up in a good way. 

We have a conference next week in regards to FAS.  I don't think I am going to learn anything more than what I know but it is a great reminder of what I do know.  Why my child can do things that drive me nuts and yet I know it isn't on purpose, but needing direction.  It sounds so simply in writing this but it isn't on a daily level.  I video taped us the other day.  As I replayed it and I am listening to it I think I sound calm but I ask a lot of questions.

I want to really capture what I see but by the time I have the camera the anger has past and I should be grateful but I want Brandon to see his anger and how he looks.  Then I realize maybe it is better he does get over it quicker.... and I don't need it to show my child how he looks and acts over things that even I can't control.. like homework.
