Guest guest Posted September 2, 2002 Report Share Posted September 2, 2002 Jacquie, I don't know exactly what it is, but every single email from you I always get AFTER the replies!! Like the original is near the end of the thread, or the last in the thread...

" - Agatha Christie , frazzled mom to: , PDD-NOS, ADHD, Mixed Expressive/Receptive Language Disorder, 4 , NT, Terrible Twos, but adorable none-the-less, 2 met a nice lady at Mc's today At Mc's today, I took into the two-stall ladies washroom. He took one stall, I took the other. When I warned him I was going to flush, he panicked, so I told him to leave after washing his hands and I'd flush them both. Well, he nearly took out an old lady on the way out, who stood interestedly aside as I flushed the two toilets. I explained his aversion to loud noise, and she said, " My grandson is like that. Claps his hands over his ears at any loud noise. Seems to adjust to the noises, though, over time. " Then she smiled. " Maybe they'll grow out of it. " Wow. A NICE person!

Guest guest Posted September 3, 2002 Report Share Posted September 3, 2002 Wow!! Those nice people are few and far between, but they sure can make a difference. It is really amazing how much nastiness you can forget with just one nice person! I tried to be a Nice Lady tonight. When I went to the corner store there was a woman with an older baby who had a paci. I told her the little girl sure was cute (she really was - blonde & blue in a pink dress & asked how old she was - 2 1/2 - & said mine's about to turn 3, he's home with his dad. She said her little girl would turn 3 on Christmas Eve. So I hope I was a Nice Lady who did not say nasty things about her child " still " using a paci. -Sara.

When I have my life and mind totally together... (lol) I try and say or usually do one little random act of kindness each day. Sometimes you can see people really appreciate it and other times people just look at you like your'e a nut. But hey, at least i know i tried, right??

Guest guest Posted September 8, 2002 Report Share Posted September 8, 2002 Sara that was nice. It is hard to tell if someone needs a nice person or just be left alone. I hate to say it but was still using his paci when he was 6.
