Off the top of my head, I'd say I...Love this. <br /><br />Off the top of my head, I'd say I *try* and see the day as a whole unit, instead of breaking it up into individual time segments. Like, sure the kids had cereal for dinner, but they had a great breakfast with spinach in their eggs, and a great lunch with carrots and turkey sandwiches. Or, okay, so we watched A LOT of TV this morning, but then we spent the entire rest of the day outside or being artsy.<br /><br />When I see the bigger picture, it helps me not to focus on the failures so much.Kendrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13341163555258432231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15766662.post-26646555628542649882012-05-04T13:55:26.752-07:002012-05-04T13:55:26.752-07:00Oohh...I like these.

We also have rules about respect around here that I end up applying to the neighbor kids recently. Olivia knows that shouting and screaming or talking back to Mom and Dad doesn't fly. The kids I babysit know it too. The new neighborhood kids are SLOWLY learning. I end up "babysitting" them too often because they are attracted to our playset.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10755406094939522956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15766662.post-19187478457569541282012-05-03T09:23:48.596-07:002012-05-03T09:23:48.596-07:00Fantastic.
