Day 8

Harmony seemed to be a little more balanced last night. I came home and she was working on her homework and keep in mind that Emilie does not have homework on Wednesday's. Emilie was sitting across from her writing some letters and Harmony was very annoyed with anything that she was doing. It seems that her patience levels have become lessened and she is very moody and intolerable of anything having to do with her Sister.

She pulled me aside and said that she "was tired of Daddy constantly saying finish your homework". I heard him say it twice when she was daydreaming.

We also got a letter from the school counselor and she has asked to see Harmony to work on her social skills and appropriate behavior in class.

I am not liking what I am seeing here, and growing very concerned for her.

Changes?

Harmony started her remedy on 1/21 and completed it as instructed. I phoned her on 1/22 while we were on vacation and she seemed to be the same as far as demeanor. I asked her how she felt and she said that she was a little light headed but fine otherwise.

In my subsequent calls to her while we were traveling she seemed to take on a air of being much more grown up and wanting to take on more responsibility.

We returned home 1/26 and she was very caring toward her Sister which is something new as they usually have regular spats. I do believe now that this was more for my benefit than anything.

1/27 - Harmony is very emotional today, she cried and ran to her room after I got upset with her Sister for not clearing the table for dinner (asked her 5 times to remove her books).

I sat down and spoke with her and she said that she didn't like yelling and I apologized.

7:30 - The girls got in the hot tub for about 10 minutes and then came in, about 30 minutes later Harmony complained of a severe headache. I gave her some Childrens' Tylenol and it subsided. She went to bed as normal..
