there is something odd going on
SS7 seems very sad dispute our efforts to lift his sprites but when asked he claims that everything is fine.
From the time he walked in the door I noticed something was off, he tried to walk right into the toy room but I stopping him because he had a sucker and I don't allow food any where but the dining room. And no I wasn't mean about it.
We asked him about his week and were met with short answers. I brought the new kitten out to see him and he held him for a minute but lost interest. He asked us what was new - he always asks that because BM always buy him something when he goes to her house. We were honest and told him that there was nothing new. I asked him some questions about his upcoming birthday party and he answers were excited but even that excitement was brief.
Also note worthy was BM dropped sKids off alone tonight, with out her hubby. Her hubby then later txt'ed DH to ask him to bring back the little 4 wheeler that we borrowed (it's supposedly ss7's) the week before for SS7 to run because BM doesn't let him run in, in fact DH couldn't get it started at first since it had sat in BM's garage for over a 2 years. Originally BM had told us that we could keep it at our house since they had no place for him to ride it. But it's theirs so we will return it. DH has offered to buy it from them. He is worried that they are going to sell, something that BM does when she is having money issues.
SS7 also asked tonight when he was going to see Therapist again, which isn't for a few weeks. We asked if he was okay and he said yes.
We have theories that there is something going on at BM's house. Either issues between her and her hubby or money troubles. Maybe even health issues. Could also be all the above. A co-worker told DH that he saw BM out without her hubby dancing with other men. She has always had money issues because he loves to shop and buy crap she doesn't need. Last year BM told us that she had Genetic Lupus, she claims to have had surgery for the pain. But again we don't know what to believe. SS7 has also told us a few times that they are moving.
It's not that I care about BM but I am worried about the kids and the affect of whatever is going on with her on the kids. SS7 is also super tired he is fighting his sleep tonight, he has gotten up twice already to ask for water, which is funny because he wasn't thirsty at all before he was told to get in bed, now his throat is suddenly dry. So it could be a long night.

ss7 ended up in therapy last
ss7 ended up in therapy last summer after getting depressed and having anxiety issues with panic attacks.
It's not so much that I am worried about BM but the panic attack just stopped recently, or at least we are better at noticing the signs that one is coming and redirecting him. Night is when he usually gets them, when everything stops and he is left with his thoughts. The asking for repeated drinks is usually a sign that he is fighting his sleep and if he does it long enough he will freak himself out. His throat being 'dry' will become, I can't breathe and I am dying. (sadly no joke).
He sees therapist in 2 weeks and then in June they are having him tested to see if his issues are a sleep problem, anxiety or attention. He has all 3 but 1 of them could be causing the other two.
Update*** DH called BM to see
Update***
DH called BM to see if anything happened to SS7 over the weekend. It's hard to tell the truth since both BM and SS7 like to tell stories...
but BM claims that they had a great weekend, they got a projector and played a movie outside on the side of their house and invited the neighborhood kids over on Saturday night, staying up late. which is just great considering how SS7 gets when he is tired.The next day BM says one of the kids came back over but SS7 got 'pissed' at her when the kids had to go home so he could take a two hour nap.
SS7 said they were up late watching movies but didn't say anything about a projector or being outside. He said a little girl came over and play with him Sunday but nothing about a nap or getting upset at BM.
AS tired as he was Sunday when she dropped him off there is no way he took a 2 hour nap. He may have laid in bed and watch TV for 2 hours but he didn't sleep. After a night at our house the kid was completely different the next day, his attitude was much improved leading us to think that he may have just been over tired.
