OK. Let me give you a new update.
Caleb has been doing well in preschool. We have had a few days where he has not been the most well behaved child. We have learned that this is the course with him. He will be really good for a long string of days. Then suddenly he gets bad, really bad. Then he turns nice again. We just have to remember to always be on him and not let him get away with anything. His newest thing is to answer "pee pee" to everything you ask him. Apparently the funny "pee pee" jokes start young.
Campbell has been doing great. She has passed all of her division facts. There are only a couple of kids in her class that have achieved this goal. She did shed a few tears learning these, but she learned them. On the flip side, she totally understands and loves probability. She has started her strength training classes. She is the smallest in the class (ages 10-16) but she hangs in there with everyone else.
Aaron is also doing well. He has been contracting for the last 9 months. Next week he gets hired on as a full time employee with the company. It will be nice to have that security back. He has been building a bed for Caleb so has been back in the wood shop again. He does enjoy spending his time out there.
As for me, life is alright. I am still not employed. We are just taking that one day at a time. I would like to do something at least parttime. In the meantime, I am looking at going back to school. I'm not sure what exactly I will do yet ( a master's degree or another bachelor's) but it looks as though it may be time to hit the books again.
As a whole, the family is doing great. We have spent some time at the museums, zoos, and outdoor activities. Life is seemingly busy right now but we are just enjoying our time together.

What a great idea if you can afford it. I would love to go back to school, and hopefully I will after I finish cooking this baby!
Don't stress too much about Caleb. Stay on top of him like you said, but just know that boys are...DIFFERENT. They just HAVE to test boundaries. They don't accept any rule just because it's a rule. There's no other mom of a boy who doesn't get what's going on. Any boy mom who claims her kid never acted out is FULL OF IT. Completely FULL OF IT.
