Tough time with Piano today

Today QuocNam had a hard time with a Piano lesson, and couldn't thru the first line for a long time. He must be tired. I tried to get him thru with it, but he seems to shutdown and want to go bed. I was so mad and told QuocNam that I'm going to donate the ipad so he won't be able to play and not doing homework or practice piano. QuocNam did cry and told mom to give him breakfast every morning so he can be smart and learn the lesson better... Btw, yesterday we came over to Williams's house for Noel's dinner. When leaving, thang Liem told QuocNam to reveal his secret, but QN didn't tell him so thang Liem got mad. They struggled and little bit and thang Liem got a yell from his dad and he cried too. next morning, he texted Thao and said: he didn't want QuocNam to come to his house, and he won't want to come hear and see QN any more...Thao did say sorry for the misunderstanding but thang Liem still said "no way"...

One bad scary moment

A couple days after the Pittsburgh trip, QN was going regularly to the bathroom. On Tuesday, QN was inside the bathroom and he locked the door to ddi i. After a while Dad when and checked and heard nothing. Knocked on door and called for QN but heard nothing. It started to get strange. Even grandpa called and no answer. Dad was so concern, so dad took some knight and tried to pry to door open, but couldn't do it. At last everyone so worry and dad called out the last time, if QN don't open the door, dad would call 911 and police to come and break the door...at this time we heard the door openned and QN stood with the unfinished work in the bathroom. He was scared at last. Dad was so angry about his behavior, but ask QN to finish with the bathroom then come out and hear dad talked to him. After asking and explained to QN what might have happened if police come, QN buon va khoc... Next day, when dad when home, mom told me that QN went to the bathroom with wide open door. Mom told him to close it, but don't lock. He did take this lesson seriously. What a scary moment that was !!!

Big achievement over the Pittsburgh trip

One of the big achievement over the trip was that QuocNam was able to i. 4 times in one week stay in Pittsburgh. That was the record. Normally QN hold for one week and he was bo'n when going to the bathroom. Another factor is when going to a different place QN is shy from going. This time, with the help from grandma, co Ut to feed veggies and fruits and also QN started to take Prune juice and that made the big difference. Now mom is happy to hear that. When coming back home, QN is going more regularly now. He was able to go in a day or two of course with regular intake of Prune juice. Hope QN can keep it up !!!
