I have just finished my first week back of counting points for a very long time. So far, success. The fact that I have not indulged in my chocolate fantasies (amazing, now that I'm on a diet my fantasies involve chocolate instead of alcohol) even though my son is being a huge pain in the butt is quite the accomplishment. I don't know what's gotten into him, but I am really tired of all of the smart ass comments lately. This last week has been hell. I'd swear he was a teenager instead of 9! Sometimes I look at him and think what am I doing wrong? I love being home with my children, but lately I just feel like the world's worst mother. I spend way too much time getting after him, and I'm afraid that no matter what I say to him, and how I do keep telling him that I love him that he's going to think that his sister is my favorite. Honestly, she may be three, but she can be naughty, and she gets her fair share of time outs too.
Back to Bran, he even made a sexist remark Friday night. I was stunned (he's always been a momma's boy), and I lit into him letting him know it was completely innappropriate and unexceptable. I know that I didn't raise him like this so what is happening to my little boy?!

Congrats on doing your points, my sister is trying to get me to join weight watchers, I think I might do the week trial for free...but man i just like food too much...a stress reliefer for me. Way to go on avoiding the chocolate, and as for your son...I think sometimes they start the teens a little early...I know I did...
can i edit my post?? sorry for the miss spellings...and I think being a mom is the hardest job, but really the most rewarding.
You know Bran is a good kid and he will straighten out. He is just going through a little phase and you need to whip him back into shape!
Good Job on the weight watchers points. I am surprised I have done as well as I have.

Nothing is happening to him other than what's supposed to....he is growing up and testing limits. Remember, we always hurt the ones we love - he knows you will LOVE him no matter what so he is not afraid to push your buttons.
Belive me, I speak from experience. Before CJ went into the Air Force, we had some trying times...very trying!
Hang in there - you're doing just fine!
