No push over!!!

The Grand Girl has been a little sick...She has a bad cough, a slight fever, and last Friday a sore throat...She has asthma...So I started her on antibiotics last Friday...I dose her twice a day with Tylenol and she is taking two breathing treatments a day....She really is not feeling up to par but not so sick she can not go to school...BUT....

This morning she came out of her room and her hair was in two braids...It was not parted straight and she had on one black hair band and then a tan big fuzzy hair band on the other one....With having to take a 10 minute treatment it ran us a little behind and I told her to grab a brush she could not go to school like that...I re did her hair with only the sides pulled up. She got mad. Now when Mackenzie gets mad at me she will not say I am mad...she just pouts. Well, she pouted all of the way to school and then when we got there she started crying and did not want to go to school. She said she felt bad and I am sure she did.

She is getting out of school a day and a half early this week and it is the end of the semester so we have some tests. She really needed to go to school. She has a Social Studies test and a Science test tomorrow. So this morning I went into her teachers room to get her book for Social studies. She does not have a science book because he had to turn them back in last week...

Anyway he gave me another science study sheet...about substances, mixtures and chemical reactions...It was not filled in and I do not have a book...so we looked all of the questions up on the computer....They were all fill in the blank and the exact wording was not on the net...

Finally between Kris, Missy and myself I think we have all 17 questions correct...But I am not positive....Mackenzie was no help at all, she acted like she had never heard of anything the questions were talking about.

She has had to study all day except for three hours she slept....I have told her at least 50 times how she should have gone to school. A few minutes ago she came out of the bathroom and had her hair in two braids again. I told her she was not going to school in the morning with those braids in her hair like that and if she was going to get bad she had better do it now. Because in the morning she was going to school and if she was pouting I was kicking her out at the curb. I was assured she was not going to be mad. I am sure she will not want to stay home again unless she is dead dog sick because it will take a long time for her to forget this day..
