Hi Pat,

Thank you so much for your great advise, you have been most helpful. I now could understand the change in some of her behavior, it all makes sense. I had her on a schedule for a while and since she started school and started watching and understanding TV more, she has been off her schedule. She can not go to sleep at night, and when she finally does wakes up in the middle of the night to come into our room. I was also thinking about pulling her out of school because I do think she is over stimulated now, or maybe just send her a few times a week. I will try some of your other advise as well.

The book The Weaver's Craft I have heard of. I will read it.

The 3 children you adopted, are they siblings. It must of been a tremendous adjustment for you with 3 and having 2 of your own. Your must have a great deal of patience. After the first couple of months of being home with my daughter I would wonder how people do it with 2 and 3, and you have 5. You must be a saint. Although when we have days that are going well, I would look at my husband and tell him that it would like to go back to get a little brother or sister for her. ( He justs looks at me)

Well tomorrow is another day and I will try a little harder, I knew this was going to be a challenge and am sure in time it will all work out.

I will keep you posted and please do keep in touch. I would love to hear about your children.

Talk to you soon Joan
